Costs of our data services

The usage of a broad population data collection organization, such as Lifelines, is less expensive compared to collecting your own data and/or biological samples. Lifelines is a not-for-profit biobank. Our data collection during the regular waves is funded so data itself are free of charge. Our data services are fee-for-service based for scientific institutions and we charge the costs price.

Our data services include: 

  • registration and review of applications
  • use of the Lifelines data
  • data management services
  • access to one of our research environments
  • storage

Costs

Costs may vary depending on the type of application and/or project. Costs for biosamples, linkage projects, or additional studies can be found on their respective pages. On this page we will focus on projects that use the currently available data only (as described above). Access to the available Lifelines data can be provided on two research environments: the Lifelines Workspace and the Lifelines UMCG high performance cluster (HPC). Information on these systems can be found here

Note: all prices in the table below are excluding VAT. VAT percentages can differ depending on your country of origin. Prices including VAT or for a different time period can be requested by contacting Lifelines Data Management.
