Research progress depends on data patients share, but what else should we know? What makes data useful and valuable to researchers? How do we collect data that is high quality? What are CDISC standards and why are they important? What are the real-life examples of successful use of natural history studies and how have they helped patients? What are the challenges in data collection and what can we do to overcome them? What should patients, researchers, or industry representatives know? Please join our webinar to hear perspectives on these questions from our speakers from various backgrounds, from patient advocacy to industry, and everything in between. You will be able to ask your questions and share your comments. This is a FREE collaborative event for the entire community.

    Savvy Coop
    Savvy Cooperative is the first and only patient-owned public benefit co-op. Savvy empowers patients to co-create new solutions, by giving them a sense of purpose, and helping them earn money. In healthcare, this is done by giving patients direct ways to share their experiences with health innovators, and advocating that they be fairly compensated for their contributions.
