The Project Data Sphere platform provides a place where the world's research community can broadly share, integrate, and analyze patient-level data from academic and industry cancer clinical trials. Launched in 2014 with nine data sets, the platform currently features about 155 data sets representing more than 120,000 patient lives. Access to data sets is granted through a quick process, and a variety of SAS analytic tools are freely available to registered users. https://data.projectdatasphere.org/projectdatasphere/html/home Collaborative research programs: We manage four programs that explore leading issues in oncology using machine learning tools and big data analytics. Each program is led by a Project Data Sphere staff member who assembles targeted task forces comprising notable members of industry, academia, and regulatory science. Biannual symposia co-hosted with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration provide a rich forum in which to take a deep dive into the work of these task forces." https://www.projectdatasphere.org/research/programs **Funders and Partners** For more information about the [Funders](https://www.projectdatasphere.org/about/collaborators-supporters) and Partners, please visit [Project Data Sphere](https://www.projectdatasphere.org/) **People and Careers** Visit the LinkedIn page to find out more about the [people](https://www.linkedin.com/company/project-data-sphere-llc/people/) working at Project Data Sphere and the [career opportunities](https://www.linkedin.com/company/project-data-sphere-llc/jobs/) currently available. **Languages** [[English]] **Classification and Geography** Project Data Sphere is classified as an [[NGO]] and has headquarters located in Cary, NC, United States.
