WEEKLY COMMUNITY CALL MEETING
ATLAS is a free, publicly available, web-based tool developed by the OHDSI community that facilitates the design and execution of analyses on standardized, patient-level, observational data in the OMOP CDM format. Over the next month, our community calls will focus on the capabilities of the tool, while also brainstorming the roadmap for future versions. Please join us for our June 3 OHDSI Community Call (11 am ET) as ATLAS workgroup lead Christopher Knoll (Director, Observational Health Data Analytics, Janssen Research and Development) opens the month with a look at ‘The Journey of Atlas.’
Everybody is invited. If you do not have a calendar invite, please use this link to join the meeting. All recordings from these weekly calls are available within our Teams environment and will be posted on both our YouTube page and our OHDSI.org Community Calls page.
