The Personal Health Train development has been embraced by many throughout the past years.

Within the Dutch PHT network, parties are taking action with the aim to facilitate learning from each others experiences on the application of distributed data-analysis. Working towards a future in which people and organisations can apply their data purposefully for their own health or the health of others. The PHT enables the analysis to visit relevant distributed data and therefore will make the copying and collecting of data unnecessary in many cases. It thereby aims to contribute to a future of purposeful data-use by supporting the reuse of data relevant for health in a privacy-preserving manner.
