The aim of IDDO is to facilitate ethical and equitable data sharing and IDDO follows the FREE FAIRER principles of ensuring that research data are Findable, Rapidly available, Ethical, Equitable, Forever, Accessible, Interoperable, Reliable, Economically viable, and Reusable. Launched in 2016, IDDO is building upon the pioneering work of the Worldwide Antimalarial Resistance Network (WWARN), which is now incorporated as a part of the IDDO portfolio. WWARN pioneered a unique inclusive approach to data sharing and analysis for malaria, at a time when data sharing was not widely practiced and well before it became mandated. This has resulted in the development of a successful model that has been refined over a period of 10 years. WWARN’s innovative approach has enabled the malaria community to ask practical, life-saving research questions using individual patient data meta-analyses and cross-disciplinary analyses to identify and understand common trends. Results have been used to inform treatment guidelines and the development of generic antimalarial medicines. The IDDO data platform has multiple active research themes, including: malaria (WWARN), nonmalarial febrile illness (NMFI), Ebola, Visceral Leshmaniasis, Schistosomiasis, COVID-19 and medicine quality. Additional themes are in development or being scoped for feasibility including Chagas disease, melioidosis, scrub typhus and viral haemorrhagic fevers and beyond. By 2023, IDDO aims to add further research themes to the platform portfolio. The IDDO model is built upon the fact that we can achieve significant economies of scale by adapting existing infrastructure for new diseases. IDDO’s secretariat is based in the Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health at Oxford University, but works in strong collaboration with research communities on the ground and in real time to identify and prioritise research questions and provide tools and resources that improve the design and quality of clinical studies. We standardise and pool individual-patient data and facilitate complex meta-analyses to generate evidence on the efficacy of existing medicines, inform the development of new ones and advance understanding of disease. We disseminate the resulting evidence widely to inform policy and future research. This forms a virtuous cycle that enables the continual advancement of knowledge, builds capacity for evidence-based practice, and fosters equity. Using its three strategic themes of Build, Curate, Innovate, IDDO is:       Establishing an accessible and trusted infectious diseases observatory which acts as the central repository for data that contributes to the evidence base for understanding treatment of selected neglected poverty-related diseases and emerging infections; Ensuring the long-term security and accessibility of data; Gathering and sharing best methodological clinical research practices to improve data capture, management and integration of clinical, epidemiological, pharmacological/pharmacometric and laboratory-based studies; Developing tools to facilitate the use of these standards in prospective clinical trials in infectious diseases; Engaging the scientific community to implement and evolve these tools as the gold standard across poverty-related diseases and emerging infections fields; Developing governance policies to establish fair conditions of use and mechanisms to ensure that the contributions of those generating the data are properly recognised so that data are made available for effective and responsible data sharing. 1 The main focus of this post will be the management and transformation of the diverse data sets that are submitted to IDDO. Submitted data arrives in a wide variety of formats (flat files and relational databases) and software packages including SPSS, Stata, Excel, SAS, Epinfo and Access. A standard data structure and dictionary of variables has been established for the data and data transformation and mapping tools are used to transform, clean and analyse the data. You will be based at the Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health in Oxford and work with a team of Data Managers and report to the Data Engineer (who reports to the Head of Data Engineering). You will work closely with the core IDDO team, including Statisticians, Programme Managers and Software Engineers and also communicate directly with data contributors around the world. You will work across the IDDO disease portfolio, including for example: malaria (WWARN), Ebola, visceral leshmaniasis, schistosomiasis, COVID-19 and medicine quality. Responsibilities You will:                  Manage, transform and curate clinical, epidemiological, molecular and pharmacology data. Ensure the completeness and accuracy of the data in the repository, as above. Ensure the accurate and complete submission of study datasets and associated documentation involving direct communication with data contributors from around the globe. Extract key study information from the study publication, study report or protocol and apply standardisation rules to this data. Manipulate contributed data using Trifacta or other tools such that the data is compatible with IDDO, WWARN and other platform tools. Maintain audit trails of data manipulation. Conduct internal verification of submitted data using standard tools. Contribute to the continued development of the data standard as new diseases and study types are shared with IDDO. Contribute to ensuring the completeness and accuracy of the IDDO data standard implementation guide. Maintain a tracking system to enable IDDO to monitor the progress of submitted data through the transformation and curation processes. Keep data contributors informed of the status of their data submission and a working knowledge of French would be very useful for this purpose. Provide advice and support training other staff on IDDO data management and transformation processes. Help study group coordinators to manage the study groups. Collaborate with IDDO statisticians and clinicians to ensure the data is in the format required for statistical analyses. Attend and present at conferences and/or user groups to represent IDDO and showcase development of bespoke curation standards and systems, as needed.
