Working Groups
Each VAC4EU study includes a Principle Investigator (PI), a statistician, programmers, and personnel from the Lead Operating Centers (LOCs) and Data Expert & Access Partner (DEAPs) organisations, alongside content experts. While these professionals collaborate extensively with one another on their specific studies, VAC4EU also provides an opportunity for cross-study collaboration. Four working groups have been established to this end, one for each role: PIs, programmers and statisticians, LOCs, and DEAPs. These working groups exist to support one another, collaborate and share resources across studies. Learn more about each working group at the links below.
Principal Investigator Working Group (PI WG)
The primary purpose of the PI WG is to share and exchange knowledge and learnings, creating synergy across studies.
Methods, Statistics, & Programming Working Group (MSP WG)
The MSP WG exists to support statisticians and programmers working on VAC4EU studies.
Data Expert & Access Partner Working Group (DEAP WG)
The DEAPs WG serves as a community space to provide support, cross-study knowledge and resource sharing, and to develop guidelines relevant to their work.
Lead Operating Center Working Group (LOC WG)
The LOC WG is a shared space for Project Managers working on different studies to share resources and provide input on other initiatives.
