To better support researchers and institutions using the ENACT Network, we introduced our Monthly Informatics Office Hours series. These sessions, held on the second Monday of each month from 3 – 4 pm ET, provide an opportunity to discuss technical challenges, share best practices, and engage directly with our informatics experts. We look forward to continuing these conversations and helping our community make the most of ENACT’s resources.
