Description
Summary:Hamilton et al respond to an Invited Commentary on Data Harmonization. They appreciate the comparison of the consensus measures for Phenotypes and eXposures (PhenX) Toolkit with the Data Schema and Harmonization Platform for Epidemiological Research (DataSHaPER) provided by Fortier et al. The PhenX Toolkit is most relevant for prospective data collection efforts, such as designing new studies or expanding existing studies. For example, the Gulf Long-term Follow-up Study (GULF STUDY) is a large prospective cohort study investigating the health of Deepwater Horizon oil-spill cleanup workers.
