DCOC administrators will work collaboratively with clinical investigators and staff to optimize and implement clinical trials that address the challenging health needs of children living in IDeA states.

The project will combine Linked Data and semantic annotation with both user- centered and data-driven knowledge curation to provide more complete, accurate, and current PDDI decision support than is currently possible.
