WEEKLY MEETINGS
Please join us this Tuesday, May 18, (11 am ET) for our next OHDSI Community Call, when representatives from the PIONEER Prostate Cancer Study-A-Thon will provide a full report on the five-day event and ongoing work that came from it. This study-a-thon was a collaboration between PIONEER (European Network of Excellence for Big Data in Prostate Cancer), OHDSI and EHDEN. We’re very excited to hear from Kees van Bochove, Giorgio Gandaglia, Asieh Golozar, Bertrand de Meulder, Ariel Achtman, and Robert Snijder about this important work.
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.
The next APAC Community Call will be this week (Thursday/Wednesday, depending on your location), and the focus will be 10-minute tutorials. Xialin Wang will present WhiteRabbit and Rabbit-In-A-Hat, Seng Chan You will present Usagi, and Sathappan Selva Muthu Kumaran will present the Data Quality Dashboard. You can access these calls by using this link, or watch the recordings on our APAC homepage on OHDSI.org.
