Sentinel as a National Resource

Many investigators, including those from academia, industry, other research networks, and other federal agencies, have leveraged the Sentinel System’s infrastructure including tools and common data model. These resources have helped researchers conduct a wide variety of studies, showing how Sentinel has accelerated important scientific work beyond drug safety. The following content illustrates how Sentinel has contributed to advancing science and public health. We encourage authors to contact us to add their work products below.


Organizations that have used Sentinel’s tools include the following, in addition to others:
