The Center for Information Services and High Performance Computing (ZIH), a central scientific institution of TUD, operates IT services and IT infrastructure and is the High Performance Computing center of the federal state of Saxony. The IT-service is specifically tailored for data-intensive computing, Big Data analytics, and Artificial Intelligence. One focus of the ZIH is research data management over the complete data life cycle and provides support for large-scale research projects with the Service Center Research Data. This also includes specific solutions for data relevant to Mental Health Dresden-Leipzig, like participant and study management, MRI image management, or computational modelling.

The Leipzig Health Atlas is a registered repository designed and implemented by an alliance of medical ontologists, medical systems biologists and clinical and epidemiological trials groups at Leipzig. It provides a multi-functional and quality-assured atlas to allow data-use according to the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-usable) principles. It provides models, data and metadata on specific use cases from medical research fields and, within the DZPG, will be expanded to accommodate the needs of researchers from the mental health field.
In Leipzig, the Institute for Medical Informatics, Statistics and Epidemiology (IMISE) provides expertise in biostatistics, epidemiology, genetic statistics, dynamic modelling of diseases and medical informatics (M. Loeffler).
The consortium Smart Medical Information Technology for Healthcare (SMITH), is one of four consortia funded by the BMBF Medical Informatics Initiative (PI: M. Loeffler). It is an association of universities, university clinics, research institutions and IT companies. The objective is to create an infrastructure of data integration centers in 10 university hospitals to permit access to hospital based electronic health records and to make them usable for data analysis. SMITH has developed a generic concept for its data integration centres that uses identical services and functionalities to optimize the benefits of the interoperability architectures and the planned data use and access process.
