So far we’ve raised $150K of the funds needed to cover operating costs of venue rental, lunch, audio/visuals and recordings fees. We’re still looking for sponsors to support this important event. If you’re interested in sponsorship check out our forum post for more details: http://forums.ohdsi.org/t/ohdsi-symposium-2017-call-for-sponsorship/2730?u=maurabeaton
Updating OHDSI.org – Over the next couple months we’ll be updating collaborator profiles and our data network list. If you have updates you’d like made to your OHDSI profile, or have updated information about your database, please email beaton@ohdsi.org with the changes.
The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.
