Collaboration for Oncology Data in Europe (CODE) is a collaborative network that aims to promote the sharing of research data by collaborators worldwide. In this interview, Ashley Woolmore, Initiative Lead for CODE, explains the benefits that CODE can offer to collaborators, including the provision of data analysis tools and an infrastructure to share data within the scientific community. Speaking at the UK Oncology Forum (OF) 2018, held in Liverpool, UK, Dr Woolmore explains that this collaboration allows clinicians who are treating comparable patient groups with similar malignancy types to understand each others practice. By combining the knowledge of the scientific community, patient care can be improved. CODE is a collaborative endeavor and Dr Woolmore calls for more centers to participate in order to continue the success achieved to date.
