Dear ELAG,

SNOMED International is hosting an upcoming SNOMED CT Research Webinar that may be of interest to many:

Bridging the RWD databases across the countries to empower studies on COVID-19

This presentation will share recent accomplishments utilizing SNOMED CT as the key terminology to coordinate real-world evidence studies around the world on COVID-19. SNOMED CT has been bridging the EHR/EMR databases in different countries to build up a network for large-scale analysis on the demographics, clinical features, treatment, and health outcomes of COVID-19 patients. The implementation of SNOMED CT in a broader scope will help the global community to prepare for the next-wave of COVID-19 and the next communicable disease.

The webinar will be presented by Dr. Gong Mengchun:

Tuesday November 24th at 14:00 UTC
