Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as everyone else and thinking something different.

Our Mission

The Yale University Open Data Access (YODA) Project’s mission is to advocate for the responsible sharing of clinical research data, open science, and research transparency. The Project is committed to supporting research focused on improving the health of patients and informing science and public health. The YODA Project can only improve with your feedback. Please share your comments and ideas.

Our Model

The YODA Project seeks mutually beneficial partnerships with Data Partners, promoting independence, responsible conduct of research, good stewardship of data, and the generation of knowledge in the best interest of society. To participate, each Data Partner must transfer full jurisdiction over data access to the YODA Project.

How it works
