After 100 hundred years of working closely together both institutions agreed to form a single university, and on 22 October 2004 they officially combined to form the largest single-site university in the UK. The University’s aim is to be known worldwide as a place where the highest academic values and educational innovation are cherished, where research prospers and makes a real difference, and where the fruits of scholarship resonate throughout society. Further details on the University can be found at: http://www.manchester.ac.uk/discover/facts-figures/ Background information on Project The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) The SKA will be the most sensitive radio telescope ever built and will play a major role in answering key questions in modern astrophysics and cosmology (see www.skatelescope.org).

Data Safe Haven (GMC293) - The General Medical Council helps to protect patients and improve medical education and practice in the UK by setting standards for students and doctors. Consistent with that purpose, the GMC uses research to help us to make sure that our policies and decisions are based on evidence. We undertake some research projects ourselves, commission some from external researchers and allow third parties access to GMC data where there is a clear public interest in their research proposal. For some research projects, we need to give researchers access to the data we hold. At present we put contracts in place with researchers to make sure that our data is always stored securely, processed fairly and lawfully and used only for the agreed research purpose. Any results are reported or published with the results fully anonymised. Most data is aggregated, anonymised or pseudonymised before it is given to researchers. We are seeking to explore a third party hosted safe haven environment to allow access to researchers to perform activities in a secure setting. We would envisage using such an environment where: 1 Data is required at a row-by row or 'identifiable' level 2 Particularly sensitive data is required
