In conjunction with University of Witswaterand, we have initiated a monthly REDCap Africa community online call for all REDCap users and administrators in Africa.  Initially focusing on usage in genomics research studies mainly for phenotype data collection but we are open to suggestions and the needs of the general REDCap Africa community.

H3ABioNet will be supporting the use of REDCap for clinical/phenotype data collection by the H3Africa Consortium studies.  This is due to REDCap’s ease of setup and use, the need to standardise data collection methods where possible in our consortium, no charge and the rapidly expanding use of REDCap internationally.  We have some long-standing REDCap users but a greater number of “newbies” and we have received eager, positive feedback when suggesting this forum for the sharing of ideas and solutions in REDCap use and application in the genomics research field. In conjunction with REDCap Africa running from Wits University we are hoping to build the REDCap community in Africa to share ideas, provide support for each other and enhance the way we use REDCap.

Every last Wednesday of the month at 12:00-13:00 GMT (14:00-15:00 CAT).
Next call happening on 25th November 2020.
