The use of i2b2 will be illustrated in achieving high impact publications and participation in several high-profile national and international research networks to study COVID-19: (1) The Consortium for Clinical Characterization of COVID-19 by EHR (4CE) engages local experts in informatics, statistics, and clinical medicine at hospitals around the world to iteratively improve sites' data quality to gain trust in the data and to conduct rapid analyses on COVID-19 through a federated model and patient chart review. (2) Accrual to Clinical Trials (ACT) is a national federated network that connects i2b2 databases at 40+ institutions across the country, enabling researchers to access data on more than 100 million patients.
