The 2019 OHDSI Korea Symposium took place Dec. 12-14 at the Konjiam Resort in Gwangju and attracted 330 people to the main symposium on Dec. 13. It was another great gathering of OHDSI collaborators — both veterans and those just starting on the journey — to learn from each other, present their own research, and network together. This page includes a photo gallery from the event, as well as videos from the main symposium; tutorials are being added over the next couple of weeks.

Patrick Ryan, Martijn Schuemie and Seng Chan You discuss OHDSI in varying contexts, including the community aspect of research (Ryan), best practices for observational research (Schuemie), and OHDSI Korea in action as a community (You).
