1,000 Patient Project Enables Easier Access to Research Participant Data

The 1,000 Patient Project (1KP) is the first of its kind at Duke that aggregates clinical, sample, and assay data presented through an easy-to-use query interface that does not require training.

With the platform, researchers can quickly find a cohort of participants with readily available data for analysis. The searchable repository for all enrolled patients provides researchers the ability to query de-identified data for 1,000 patients to determine a potential cohort of participants for a research or QI study. This tool enables labs the ability to submit assay data that is loaded into durable storage along with necessary metadata. Data management can now finalize a target participant list generated by the researcher’s query and export requested clinical data and assays to a secure environment for analysis.
