First schooling at Wissenschaftszentrum Schloss Reisensburg

2025.02.01

The 1st schooling of the SHARE-CTD project took place in person with international principal investigators, partners and doctoral students at Wissenschaftszentrum Schloss Reisensburg (Günzburg) from 27.01. to 31.01.2025. The focus was on lectures and exercises around the topics of Reproducibility, Clinical Biostatistics and Clinical Trials, to bring the students with different university backgrounds to the same level. Furthermore, there was a short introduction to the 1st Datathon (07.07.2025 – 11.07.2025, Göttingen, led by Prof. Dr. Ulrich Sax), which ended with the formation of five teams plus homework, such as “Statistical Analysis Plan” and “dynamic reporting”. We were also pleased to have Joseph Ross from YODA (Yale University Open Data Access) joined us via Zoom to present and discuss YODA with our DCs. YODA is an important partner and source for sharing clinical trial data.

In addition to the more serious content and the filling of empty stomachs, there were also social activities for team building, such as a movie night, a pub quiz, poster flash talks and guided tours of “Ulmer Münster” and the museum “Die Einsteins”. According to Albert Einsteins citation “Lernen ist Erfahrung, alles andere ist nur Information” we will meet us again for an exciting 1st Datathon in Göttingen in July 2025!

The SHARE-CTD concept was presented at a session on data sharing at the recent World Congress on Research Integrity (Athens, June 2nd to 5th, 2024, https://www.researchintegrity.org/home-8th-athens-2024) . This session resulted in a topic paper that has now been published in the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology (JCE) PIIS0895435625000137.pdf. The summary of the paper is in line with the concerns of SHARE-CTD: "Responsible data sharing requires strategic planning, cultural shifts in research, and coordinated efforts from all stakeholders to become standard practice in biomedical research".
