Join us for the first webinar on the xShare project, hosted by EUCROF. This first event is part of a three-part series designed to keep the community up to date on the xSHARE project and provide valuable insights and innovative discussions to the Community.

This inaugural webinar will feature a presentation, “Standards in Sync: Accelerating Medical Research”, delivered by Rhonda Facile, VP, Partnerships and Development, CDISC and Rebecca Kush, PhD, President, Catalysis; Founder and President Emeritus, CDISC.  This presentation will bring attendees up to date on the xSHARE project, of which CDISC is a significant contributor, and highlight innovative approaches to the deployment of existing global data standards to benefit all stakeholders.

Date & Time: 25 September 2024 from 16:00 to 17:30 (CEST)
Attendees: Service Providers for Clinical Research (CROs), Hospitals - Investigational sites, Vendors of EHR systems for hospitals, Data Management / Engineering community, Academia and Pharma Industry (Sponsors)

Overview
It has been demonstrated that using standards from the start of clinical research studies (i.e., protocol and CRF development) can save significant time and resources and results in higher quality research. Unfortunately, it is not always clear how to select the appropriate standards for the purpose and how to ensure they are robust and will achieve the desired goals. All too often in the standards development world, we are faced with competing standards, new ‘standards’ development when standards already exist, or mapping data into a standard after the study has ended. These redundancies and inefficient methods incur costs in terms of resources, money and, in some cases, risks to patients (i.e. all of us). They may also have a negative effect on the data. 
This workshop is the first of three and is organized in the context of the xShare program (https://xshare-project.eu), a three-year Horizon Europe project that envisions expanding the European Electronic Health Record exchange Format (EEHRxF) to improve interoperability within the European Health Data Space (EHDS). It is our hope that these new interoperability capabilities and this collaborative work will enable a greater alignment of data quality between care and research, to transform data into valuable knowledge which benefits all. We will cover the research use cases that are the focus of xSHARE and the standards that are being employed in a synchronized manner.

Attendees of this webinar will learn:
a) Overview of the EU xSHARE project
b) Rationale and benefits of using standards in the planning stage of clinical research studies
c) Characteristics of robust standards and achieving semantic interoperability at the source
d) Examples of complementary implementation of standards, including xSHARE
e) Five principles of developing and implementing synchronous standards
