 The [[https://www.act-network.org/|Accrual of patients to Clinical Trials (ACT) network]] is a nationwide network of sites that share EHR data to significantly increase participant accrual to the nation’s highest priority clinical trials. It is funded by NCATS' Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) program that supports efforts to solve system-wide translational research problems to improve the success of U.S. clinical trials. The ACT network is built on existing platforms (i2b2/SHRINE) to create a federated network with common standards, data terminology and shared resources. The ACT investigators are focused on 1) data harmonization across EHR platforms, 2) technical needs assessment and implementation, 3) regulatory approaches to ensure compliance with protocols for data access and participant contact, and 4) governance development to establish proper agreements among institutions.

 The [[http://ties.dbmi.pitt.edu/|Text Information Extraction System (TIES) Cancer Research Network]]  is a federated network of clinical reports and biospecimen registry to support and facilitate basic science, clinical, and translational research in cancer. TIES uses a sophisticated concept based search to retrieve pathology and radiology reports containing concepts of interest.  Plans include enabling virtual slides and tissue microarray creation. The current participants in the network are University of Pittsburgh, University of Pennsylvania, Augusta University, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Thomas Jefferson University and Stony Brook University.  The [[http://ties.dbmi.pitt.edu/|Text Information Extraction System (TIES) Cancer Research Network]]  is a federated network of clinical reports and biospecimen registry to support and facilitate basic science, clinical, and translational research in cancer.
