ANNOUNCEMENTS

2017 OHDSI Symposium - The date and location for the 2017 OHDSI Symposium has been confirmed! This year’s symposium will take place on Wednesday, October 18th at the Bethesda North Marriott. Full-day tutorial sessions will take place on October 19-20th. If you’re interested in attending, please save the date.

Symposium Registration - Registration for the symposium will open shortly. Check out the symposium website for updates: https://www.ohdsi.org/events/2017-ohdsi-symposium/

Call for Sponsorship - To fund the 2017 symposium we need to raise $200K to cover operating costs of venue rental, lunch, audio/visuals and recordings fees. We’re reaching out to the entire community for sponsors who want to support this important event and allow us to build upon the success of past symposia.
