Any question This group is designed to serve as an open-source platform for addressing queries related to real-world data may be answered in a style similar to stack overflow.(RWD). We aim to create an environment similar to Stack Overflow, where you can receive answers to your questions. 

Every organisation has internal documents of learnings and best practices for conducting research with real-world data. This could take the form of database quirks, standard cohort definitions and preferred algorithms. There is currently no open-source alternative to the internal documents, which leads to duplicated errors, slower learning at the individual level and slower advancement of real-world evidence at the industry level.

Having an open-source option for these learnings to be recorded and shared will lead to less duplication of effort, faster evolution of the real-world evidence space, and ultimately better insights for participants and patients. Stakeholders include data vendors, pharma and any other entity that uses real-world data.
