N3C’s New Vision Unveiled — Invitation to N3C Community Forum on June 2, 2025
June 2, 2025 - Webinar
Time: 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. EDT
NCATS’ N3C Team reconvened the National Clinical Cohort Collaborative (N3C) Community Forum virtually on Monday, June 2, 2025. This meeting marked the beginning of what we anticipate will be a continuing series of Forum conversations as N3C moves into its next phase. Since the last gathering of the N3C Community, N3C has been evolving in exciting new directions. NCATS’ N3C Team has been working on the N3C Clinical Pilot and incorporating the extensive feedback received from many of the community members. The results point to an exciting evolution of N3C and changes that will shape how institutions engage with N3C in the future.
During the Forum, NCATS’ N3C Team shared its progress, offered a first look at the pilot, outlined the path ahead and invited questions.
