 When performing an analysis, usually the first step is to define the population of interest (also known as a cohort). ​ However, there is limited technology out there that makes it easy for a user to define populations based on user-specified criteria. ​ CIRCE provides a user interface for users to enter cohort criteria, persist them to storage, and generate the CDM v5 SQL queries. When performing an analysis, usually the first step is to define the population of interest (also known as a cohort). ​ However, there is limited technology out there that makes it easy for a user to define populations based on user-specified criteria. ​ CIRCE provides a user interface for users to enter cohort criteria, persist them to storage, and generate the CDM v5 SQL queries.

 The scope of CIRCE is to enable a researcher to specify criteria that identifies a patient population within the Common Data Model (CDM). ​ The criteria available for cohort definition is directly mapped to the entity types found in the CDM v5: Person, Condition_occurrence,​ Condition_era,​ Drug_Occurrence,​ Drug_era, Procedure_occurrence,​ Observation,​ Visit, and Death. ​ By having a well-defined data-structure for capturing cohort definition criteria, definitions can be shared between CDM environments to do comparative analysis. The scope of CIRCE is to enable a researcher to specify criteria that identifies a patient population within the Common Data Model (CDM). ​ The criteria available for cohort definition is directly mapped to the entity types found in the CDM v5: Person, Condition_occurrence,​ Condition_era,​ Drug_Occurrence,​ Drug_era, Procedure_occurrence,​ Observation,​ Visit, and Death. ​ By having a well-defined data-structure for capturing cohort definition criteria, definitions can be shared between CDM environments to do comparative analysis.
