Hi all! Each month, the community management team will summarize the new discussions taking place in the MJFF Data Community of Practice (DCoP)! This post is a recap of highlights from March. To see previous months’, look here.
Upcoming DCoP events 
- If you joined the community this year, fill out this survey so that we can learn how to better serve new members!
- If you’re a new member who didn’t get a chance to join a welcome call, provide your availability for one here.
- On April 22nd you have the opportunity to join a training on open licensing for scientific research. Keep an eye out for an invitation!
Ongoing conversations 
- @ekaamewu started a conversation on Social methods for lived experiences of people living with PD. Chime in or let him know if you’re interested in collaborating on a survey for Fox Insight!
- At the end of February, @jodiefm asked if anyone has used PPMI to study long-term disease progression. The discussion has unfolded with @gdp22, @ehutchins, and @danieltds weighing in. Join in if you’re interested in studying long term disease progression, especially as it pertains to the stability of subtypes over time!
