Palantir mistrust may deter NHS research data sharing
UK health minister James Frith said mistrust of Palantir could make patients less willing to share NHS data for research, as new figures showed tens of thousands had opted out.

Why it matters
Falling participation could weaken health research that depends on broad and representative patient data.
