<p><a href="https://recap-preterm.eu">RECAP Preterm</a> (Research into European
Children and Adults born Preterm) is a collaboration between research
scientists, clinicians, parent and family representatives, computer
scientists, statisticians and project coordinators - between them
representing 23 or more very preterm birth (below 32 weeks of
gestational age) cohorts and 15 European countries. The project is
funded by the Horizon 2020 programme to set up a platform for
collaborative analysis that is being built using the
"<a href="http://www.datashield.ac.uk">DataSHIELD</a>" software stack.</p>
<p>Some examples of the ways I have been involved are:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>As part of Work Package 7 ("Hypothesis-driven research agenda for
child VPT cohorts"), I am coordinating a project looking at extremely
preterm birth (below 27 weeks of gestation) across different European
countries. For this, we are using both an individual patient data
approach (with a few of the larger cohorts) as well as the
<a href="http://www.datashield.ac.uk">DataSHIELD</a> approach to ensure we can
include as many cohorts as possible.</p></li>
<li><p>Work Package 10 ("Dissemination, Translation and Sustainability") is
organising a Winter School (<a href="https://recap-preterm.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/RECAPpreterm_Registration_Winterschool-FINAL.pdf">register now!</a>)about how to use the RECAP Preterm data
platform to conduct research on very preterm birth and the
consequences to be held in December 2020, and I have been helping out
with the organising committee. More information is available
on the <a href="https://recap-preterm.eu/news-and-events/winter-school/">RECAP-Preterm</a> website.</p></li>
<li><p>There has been an extensive workload in harmonising the data from all
the cohorts so that they are compatible. This has been lead by Work
Package 3 ("Data mapping and data harmonization") and involves all
the cohorts that will be making data available for analysis via the
platform, consequently a lot of people (including me) have also been
involved with this work.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>I also have been involved with the <a href="https://recap-preterm.eu/for-scientists/early-career-researchers-ecr-group/">Early Career Researchers
group</a>,
helping to set it up and to organise meetings.</p>
