Please join the Data Model Harmonization subgroup at the 2022 OHDSI US Symposium for a 2-hour workshop facilitated by Ben Smith and Guy Tsafnat. We will dig into details of subgroup approach, workflows, tooling, and discuss example harmonization challenges with potential solutions
When:
- Saturday, Oct. 15, 1pm-3pm
- Registration link: 2022 OHDSI Workgroup Activities October 15-16 Tickets, Sat, Oct 15, 2022 at 8:00 AM | Eventbrite
Workshop Goals
- Review subgroup objectives and approach
- Introduce key tooling and resources
- Together and in breakout teams, develop mappings and discuss example data model harmonization challenges and potential solutions
Opportunity and call to action
- The prospect of FHIR and OMOP integration has potential to dramatically simplify large-scale collaborative research and accelerate the feedback loop between healthcare and life science
- As an example use case, centralized translation to OMOP could be possible for multi-site registries using the same FHIR implementation (e.g., US Core, as now required of US institutions)
- In order to unlock this potential, mappings need to be developed and solutions to integration challenges need to be developed and selected
- We invite your participation in the subgroup and look forward to October 15th, when we will share information and resources to help support and coordinate the team effort. We will get hands-on and do example mappings and problem solving together
- If you have any questions or suggestions, please reach out to Ben Smith at bsmith@principia.health or Guy Tsafnat at guyt@evidentli.com
