What TRUST offers
Accelerate your research with TRUST
Last updated 9 July 2026
TRUST is a data intermediary, which aims to facilitate secure data linkages for health analytics. As such, TRUST makes available the datasets based on approved data requests. Depending on the request and needs, data could include population-related datasets (e.g. demographic data), lifestyle (e.g. wearable data), chronic disease screening data, clinical data (e.g. diagnosis data, medication data, and healthcare financing data). In addition, TRUST is also seeking to facilitate access to strategic population and disease research datasets (e.g. genomic data, phenotypic data). We welcome feedback on datasets that can be beneficial to TRUST users.
Note that certain more sensitive datasets can only be accessed via a Micro-Access Laboratory (MAL) that is certified by MOH.

Scale of Analyses That Can Be Supported
Analysis requiring average compute resource
e.g. Variant re-classification of hereditary diseases
Data: Longitudinal population cohort genomic and clinical data (e.g. diagnosis, lab tests)
Analysis: Data filtering, aggregation, statistical analyses, clustering
Analytical insights generated: Known and novel clinical association with population specific disease variants, distributions and visualisation
Analysis requiring higher compute resource
e.g. GWAS analysis
Data: Longitudinal population cohort genomic and traits data
Analysis: Running GWAS
Analytical insights generated: Associated genetic factors, significances and visualisation
