The National Institute for Minority Health and Health Disparities awarded Datanomy Group LLC $306,801 on August 28, 2026, under the Minority Health and Health Disparities Research program (CFDA 93.307) to develop Project VELA, a cloud-based, model-agnostic federated query platform enabling multi-site research across health systems. Datanomy will build and validate a secure, federated query tool that allows researchers to ask clinically meaningful questions across diverse health systems without requiring data centralization or uniform data models. The platform will operate in Phase I through a partnership with Saint Louis University, deploying and testing the system on SLU's Health Care Systems Research Network Virtual Data Warehouse instance, which contains deidentified electronic health record data from approximately 11 million unique patients across urban, rural, and underserved areas in the Midwest. The VDW's structural alignment with the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership common data model positions the platform for future interoperability with other VDW sites or transition to OMOP. The federated approach addresses current barriers to multisite research—fragmented infrastructure, siloed data, inconsistent access, and high technical or cost barriers that disproportionately affect lower-resource institutions. Work is performed in New York, New York, with a period of performance from August 28, 2026, to August 27, 2027. The award is a Phase I SBIR grant.
