Contributing data
All members of the research, health and humanitarian communities are invited to contribute data. By standardising and aggregating all available Ebola data we can address knowledge gaps in order to improve patient outcomes and outbreak response in Ebola-affected countries.
We accept individual patient-level datasets collected as a part of clinical care and follow-up, laboratory services, public health response, epidemiological investigation, clinical trials, and observational research. If you are not sure whether your data are suitable for the platform, or if you have other data types that you would like to include, please contact us at ebola@iddo.org to discuss.
Data are hosted following the FAIR principles to improve Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability. This includes the assignment of a DOI to the data to promote academic credit, direct citation and tangible metrics for those researchers who collect and share data.
If you would like to share data please email: ebola@iddo.org.
