Enhanced Interoperability through Common Data Elements 

Ever wish your data could effortlessly merge with other datasets? Implementing Common Data Elements (CDEs) promotes dataset interoperability by standardizing how we collect information, enabling investigators to pool data across studies and compare findings across projects. The NIH CDE Repository provides a centralized resource for investigators to identify and utilize standardized data elements across a wide range of research domains on both the study and variable levels. Have you applied any CDEs or standardized vocabularies to your research? If so, please let us know which ones you are using on our CDE thread at the RMIP Resource Hub.

Recent Publications

Congratulations to the following study teams for their recent publications or preprints:

  • L. Ma, … D.N. Kotton. Life-long functional regeneration of in vivo airway epithelium by the engraftment of airway basal stem cells. Nat Protoc. 2025 Mar; 20(3):810-842.

Meet with us

BDC now has office hours each Wednesday from 2:00 to 3:00 PM ET to assist investigators with aggregating and harmonizing RMIP study data on the ecosystem.


We continue to coordinate one-on-one meetings with study teams to discuss a data linkage strategy. This strategy will ensure that the cell characterization data is prepared and formatted appropriately for seamless sharing with the study team. The goal is to facilitate efficient data transfer and analysis.


Resources, Materials and Support

A new video tutorial about collaborating on BDC is now available on the Navigating BDC YouTube Channel. Please check it out. If you have a topic that you’d like to see made into a video tutorial please submit it at the RMIP Resource Forum
