Expand access to your data, not your risk.

Trusted Research Environment (TRE) is a configurable, secure environment built on DNAnexus Titan and Apollo for governed collaboration around sensitive data assets. Pharmaceutical companies, biobanks, health systems, and diagnostic labs use the TRE to share data with internal teams, partners, and external researchers, eliminating the months of custom engineering otherwise required to stand up a compliant data-sharing environment.

Omics data from clinical trials is among a company’s most valuable assets, yet sharing it internally often means one-off extracts and manual approvals.

With the TRE, researchers browse available data assets and request the specific cohorts and data types their project needs. Once a request is approved, that exact data is dispensed into a locked-down workspace without duplicating files, ready for analysis with permitted Titan and Apollo tools.

Enterprise sponsors maximize the scientific return on clinical investments while guaranteeing continuous protocol compliance and privacy enforcement.

Multi-institution research and sponsored programs often stall when sensitive data cannot safely cross organizational lines.

With the TRE, one organization hosts the data while researchers from each partner site request access to the cohorts they need.

Requests can route through a single committee or parallel ethics and scientific reviews to match each institution’s governance model, and every approved team works in a secure workspace governed by the host’s policies.

Biobanks and data providers hold datasets whose value reaches far beyond their own institutions, but every new user raises the stakes on privacy, security, and intellectual property.

The TRE pairs a discoverable data showcase with configurable review workflows, and each approved team receives a scope-restricted workspace containing exactly the data you specify.

Outside data can enter only when you allow it, billing is isolated per engagement, and an auditable record of activity is retained throughout.
