End of OpenTrials Phase 1 – OpenTrials

lterrat's bookmarks 2017-05-01

Summary:

"TL;DR – OpenTrials has finished Phase 1 funding – this means that the team is having a break, with the project on hold until we secure Phase 2 funding (we’re currently working on it). In the meantime the OpenTrials explorer, our API, and database downloads will remain freely accessible. Thanks to everyone who’s contributed their time and ideas to this phase of OpenTrials, and to our funder, the Laura and John Arnold Foundation, for their generous and insightful support of the project.

It’s been a very interesting journey over the past couple of years and we’re really proud of what we’ve achieved with a small team in a short amount of time. This project couldn’t have got as far as it has without many of you, who’ve helped in a number of ways, from pledging assistance, helping with user testing or giving us feedback at conferences, and those of you we’ve met to discuss aspects of the project. And of course those individuals and organisations who have offered/donated data to the project. So, thank you – we’re making OpenTrials for you, and want to make it as useful as possible, so all your contributions have been invaluable.

What follows is a summary of what we’ve built, events we’ve been involved in, some challenges and successes of the project so far, how to get involved in the meantime, and lastly some interesting articles we’ve been reading recently."
