Data sources

This is a temporary page, created July 2021 and updated September 2021 to illustrate and annotate the content that will appear on a new Gut Reaction website later in the month ...

Potential data users are likely to find us through the HDR UK Innovation Gateway, where good documentation is key.

Therefore all pages list proposed improvements, and where these relate to improvements under the HDR UK Data Utility Framework for September review, these pages are starred in the list of "Additional Resources" below.

To show progress, changes between July and September 2021 are marked as "new" and "revised" as appropriate.
