What are the Challenges in Implementing Interoperable Data Standards?
Despite their benefits, several challenges exist in implementing interoperable data standards in cancer research:
1. Complexity: The complexity of different standards and the need for specialized knowledge can be a barrier to implementation. 2. Cost: Upgrading existing systems to comply with new standards can be expensive and resource-intensive. 3. Data Privacy: Ensuring the security and privacy of patient data while enabling data sharing is a significant concern.
