WEEKLY MEETINGS
Please join us Tuesday, Nov. 2 (11 am ET) for our next Community Call, when we will engage in discussions on future collaboration opportunities within OHDSI. As our global community starts to turn its attention towards 2022, we hope these breakout discussions will help shape different paths for OHDSI to make a positive impact in the future.
While we hope these are community-wide conversations, several leaders in the community will help facilitate the various discussions in OHDSI’s four major research areas. Everybody should start in the main meeting, and then the breakouts will be in the link below.
Methods Research: Jenna Reps and Martijn Schuemie
This breakout will be in the same link as the main community call.
Data Standards: Clair Blacketer and Maxim Moinat
Open-Source Development: Adam Black and Anthony Sena
Clinical Applications: Talita Duarte-Salles and Asieh Golozar
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.
