To help our members around the globe explore ways to address the COVID-19 pandemic, we created the Resources, Data and Research Collaboration Hub. As an extension of the Hub, we hosted an online conference on May 28th, designed to bring together researchers who are currently conducting research on the pandemic. We want to help connect them in order to discuss methodology, dissemination strategies and provide a platform for sharing new ideas to address COVID-19.
We are excited about the initial interest in the conference, and are almost at capacity for the conference.

Concluding Remarks |
The agenda for the conference is above. Please note that in order to attend the conference, you should be actively engaged in research around COVID-19. The conference is free. We ask that during the registration process, you choose two breakout topics that you are most interested in and you will be placed in those groups during the breakout period (the breakout topics will remain the same for both periods, thus allowing participants to join two different rooms overall).
Breakout Topics
- Research Methodologies
- Government Partnerships
- Dissemination Channels
- Data Set Availability
- Data Set Interoperability
- Institutional Challenges
- Trans-disciplinary Partnerships
- International Partnerships
- Applications and Future of Research
