Data Coordination Center

A Data Coordination Center (DCC) is a centralized organization that manages, standardizes, and oversees large amounts of data collected from multiple sources within a research or healthcare network. Its primary role is to ensure data quality, security, and consistency, making it easier for researchers and clinicians to analyze information accurately. The DCC also facilitates data sharing, supports compliance with regulations, and provides technical infrastructure for data storage and management. Essentially, it acts as the backbone that ensures data is reliable, well-organized, and accessible for meaningful research and decision-making.
