 Open Forum: What is the true cost of open sourceTrue Cost of Open Source?

The Open Source Technology in Clinical Data Analysis (OSTCDA) project was set up with the aim to create a manuscript on the integration of open-source software solutions for clinical data management, analysis and reporting.

Questions we addressed will address during this Webinar:

  • What is the true cost of adopting open-source tooling for clinical trial data analysis?
  • Can the industry fund open-source?

In addition to the the GitHub Discussion, we are hosting a series of forums throughout the year. See the Working Group Events page for further details.

This Forum will be taking place over Zoom on 13 September at 15:00-16:00 (BST) / 10:00-11:00 (EDT).
