WEEKLY COMMUNITY CALL MEETINGS

Please join us Tuesday, June 6 (11 am ET) for our next OHDSI Community Call, which will be a “Welcome To OHDSI” call specifically geared towards the newer members of our community. There will be an overview of our community, its mission and values, and how we collaborate to generate real-world evidence. We will take you through our website and Teams environment, discuss the upcoming Collaborator Showcase and answer any questions you might have.

Everybody is invited. Calendar invites for our 2022 community calls go out each Friday. If you did not receive one, please use this link to join the meeting. All recordings from these weekly meetings will be posted on both our main OHDSI Teams tenant and on our OHDSI.org Community Calls page.
