OHDSI Collaborator meeting 24Feb2015 cancelled

Team:

I heard no suggestions for topics for discussion this week, so I’ll cancel today’s meeting.

A couple things that you could use your spare hour for, in no particular order:

  1. Join either of the ongoing research studies: http://www.ohdsi.org/web/wiki/doku.php?id=research:ongoing_studies. For the first study, we plan to share results at the OHDSI F2F Mar23-24, so there’s still time to join. According to @Vojtech_Huser, it only takes 7 minutes to run the analysis, so what you do with your other 53 minutes is your call:)

  2. Review the proposed research study that @rkboyce presented at last week’s meeting: http://www.ohdsi.org/web/wiki/doku.php?id=research:pgx_drug_exposure

  3. Consider contributing to an OHDSI publication about the CDM and technical infrastructure to support international distributed analytics: OMOP CDM / infrastructure publication opportunity

  4. Consider contributing to another OHDSI publication / workshop / panel proposal for an AMIA submission: http://www.ohdsi.org/web/wiki/doku.php?id=research:manuscripts. Deadline is 12Mar2015.

  5. Lead a PCORI Methods grant submission. You can bang out a letter-of-intent in 1 hr, it’s due 6Mar2015: http://www.pcori.org/announcement/improving-methods-conducting-patient-centered-outcomes-research-spring-2015-cycle

  6. Propose your own research study for the OHDSI community to consider: http://www.ohdsi.org/web/wiki/doku.php?id=research:protocols_in_development

  7. Contribute to any of the ongoing analytics development projects:
    Fix an open issue on ACHILLES: https://github.com/ohdsi/achilles/issues
    Test out the current cohort definition capabilities within CIRCE: http://www.ohdsi.org/web/circe/
    Evaluate the integrity of the Vocabulary v5 using HERMES: http://www.ohdsi.org/web/hermes/index.html and post any issues you identify so @Christian_Reich can incorporate it into future releases: https://github.com/OHDSI/Vocabulary-v5.0/issues

  8. Apply CohortMethod to your next safety surveillance or comparative effectiveness research question: https://github.com/OHDSI/CohortMethod

  9. Submit an application to RESDAC to acquire some CMS data so you can contribute to and take advantage of the work coming out of the CMS ETL working group: http://forums.ohdsi.org/t/medicare-etl-development/264/33; https://github.com/OHDSI/ETL-CMS

So many ways for you to contribute to the OHDSI community, the choice is up to you!

Cheers,

Patrick
