SIMSAM Aims (2014-2018)

The national SIMSAM network seeks to create an internationally leading research community for register-based research. It accomplishes this by:

 

1. conducting, supporting, and initiating interdisciplinary research using Swedish register data;
    
2. improving the quality of data for register-based research;
    
3. enlarging the pool of scientific knowledge produced on the basis of Swedish national register data; 
                           
4. supporting and sharing methodological developments in order to maximize the
   possibilities for the use of Swedish register data for research purposes; and
    
5. encouraging and taking part in international research collaborations using register-based data.
