Abstract

This round table will provide participants with a forum to develop recommendations that will improve the data-sharing environment on BioSense 2.0. Participants will be asked to build upon the findings of a data-sharing workshop and share jurisdictional barriers to data sharing as well as potential benefits, and offer potential solutions. Round table participants will be welcome to share their recommendations with the BioSense 2.0 Governance Group.
