María Parra Rodríguez Armijo

Position: Work Package 2

Who am I?

My name is María Parra Rodríguez Armijo. I am part of the Computational Health Informatics Group at Virgen del Rocío University Hospital, within the Andalusian Health Service (SAS). My work focuses on data interoperability, FAIR principles and the preparation of clinical data for research and innovation.

What do I do in INDICATE?

I contribute to the methodological guidance developed in WP2, designing the ETL dataflow and translating interoperability standards into practical instructions that hospitals can apply when preparing their ICU data.

What am I up to during INDICATE?

I am part of Work Package 2 (WP2), which focuses on defining the INDICATE Common Data Models and supporting data providers in preparing their ICU data for the federated infrastructure. Within WP2, I am responsible for drafting the Data Provider Handbook, which provides the methodological and technical guidance that data providers will follow when preparing and transforming their data. I also support coordination across WP2 to ensure that the guidance is coherent, feasible and aligned with the needs of the clinical use cases.

What motivates me to be part of INDICATE?

I am motivated by the challenge of making complex data harmonisation processes accessible and supporting the adoption of shared methodologies across hospitals.
