Why is it important?

The repository which provides valuable and previously inaccessible information in and open and free way, is being taken over by Oxford University showing that it's appeal is global. We look forward to seeing this new stage in the repository's life as its collection and impact grow.

Perspectives

The repository project is very dear to me. It represents a DIY project to fill a gap between ethics committees/IRBs and applicants, by sharing knowledge and expertise in an open and free way.
