| - | Proposals may be submitted by any named collaborator in the OHDSI consortium. The submission process involves posting a preliminary overview and protocol to the [[research:protocols_in_development|Protocols in Development]] page. A notification of this posting should also be made on the [[http://forums.ohdsi.org/c/researchers|OHDSI Reseachers Forum]]. The study proposal is then reviewed by the community. This review period, typically 2-3 weeks, will determine level of interest as well as generate suggestions for modification to the study design. | + | Proposals may be submitted by any named collaborator in the OHDSI consortium.

| - | Projects are executed via SQL and/or R code. In order to make projects runnable at multiple sites running differenet database dialects (e.g., SQL Server, Oracle, Postgres), we employ a tool called SqlRender. A great way to learn about how these studies are written is to review an [[https://github.com/OHDSI/StudyProtocols/tree/master/Study%201%20-%20Treatment%20Pathways|example study]] on GitHub as well as the SqlRender documentation. Also feel free to contact us at the user forums. | + | Projects are executed via SQL and/or R code.

| Each study needs a study coordinator who will serve as the contact point. Results-- which should be both de-identified and aggregate-- should be returned to this individual. They are then responsible for organizing and analyzing data with the study leadership team for publication and sharing back to the OHDSI community. | Each study needs a study coordinator who will serve as the contact point.
