Share Your Insights with the DRH Team!

We are so pleased that you’re interested in collaborating with us! Your willingness to share your experiences and expertise will enable us to improve the Diabetes Research Hub and to meet the needs of researchers like you. There are two ways to participate, and we encourage you to do both:

  1. Complete a short survey about your experience using CGM data in research.
  2. Participate in a brief, 45-minute interview conducted over Zoom to help us understand how you use CGM data and how we can streamline and improve these processes.

The Survey

To make the DRH better for our research community, we want to get a better understanding of three main topics:

  • How do researchers use CGM dat
  • How do researchers currently access, clean, and analyze CGM dat
  • How do researchers currently store, share, or manage CGM data

You can help us understand your experience using CGM data in research by completing this brief survey ; it contains 25 questions and should take no more than 5 minutes to complete

Interviews

We are interested in insights from researchers experienced in the following areas:

  1. CGM Research: General insights on how CGM data is captured, analyzed, and stored in research.
  2. CGM Data Structuring and Transformation: for more technical users with either software development, data science, or data engineering backgrounds, we want to understand your workflows and get feedback on the current version of our Edge software.

1. CGM Research

We are seeking input from researchers on how you currently use CGM data in your research. Specifically, we are interested in the following content areas:

  • Discuss your background with CGM data-driven research.
  • Provide feedback on accessing, analyzing, storing, and sharing CGM data.
  • Share what works well and what could be improved.
  • Discuss the direction, problems, and opportunities in diabetes research.
  • Share your experience with data repositories and their utility and financial worth.
  • Offer suggestions for related procedures and governance.

2. CGM Data Structuring and Transformation

The Edge software interview is an in-depth user interview designed to gather detailed insights from users who are experienced data structuring and transformation.

About the Diabetes Research Hub (DRH): We offer two versions of our platform:

  • Cloud Version : Collaborate with other researchers, share de-identified datasets, and review patient outcomes at a public (global) instance.
  • Local Version : Utilize the Edge software to de-identify data and view your research outcomes on a local (private) instance.

Please review the Getting Started page for a step-by-step guide on preparing your CGM data and using the appropriate resources to securely ingest your data files.
