Dr Rebecca Li Commentary in STAT
A new commentary, published in STAT by Dr. Rebecca Li, Vivli Executive Director, argues that data sharing has moved from a conversation of whether or not data should be shared to one focusing on how to share data. She writes that this change has been taking place over a number of years and has been propelled forward by new requirements from leading journals that ask for a data sharing plan at the time a new trial is registered.
Move clinical trial data sharing from an option to an imperative.
