Cross-Cohort Collaboration Consortium

updated: 5/10/21

Cross-Cohort Collaboration Consortium

The Cross-Cohort Collaboration Consortium (CCC) is an effort to develop infrastructure, policies, and procedures which promote transparent and seamless scientific collaboration across multiple cohort studies.   Participation in the CCC indicates enthusiasm for this general principle, but does not guarantee participation in every project or preclude the pursuit of projects within any individual cohort.  Read the full CCC Mission Statement here.
