Weekly OHDSI Digest-October 25, 2021

WEEKLY MEETINGS

Please join us Tuesday, Oct. 26 (11 am ET) for our next OHDSI Community Call, in which Patrick Ryan will lead a Halloween-themed interactive demonstration of how you can use the OHDSI tools to quickly generate insights from your OMOP CDM. We hope you’ll learn a TRICK or two, and that it will be a TREAT.

Many of you will have the calendar link in your OHDSI Teams environment. If not, you will need the specific meeting link to access the community call; it will also be posted in the main OHDSI Teams environment. As always, if you can’t make it, the recordings will be posted to both our Community Calls page and the General OHDSI Teams recordings folder.
