Introduction to CPRD using synthetic datasets (cprd-data-wrangle)

These resources are for anyone new to working with datasets released by the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) (https://www.cprd.com). Researchers tasked with understanding the database tables, then querying and filtering to create a research cohort, may find our pre-processing pipeline and interactive notebooks a helpful guide to getting started.

We aim to streamline the process for researchers using CPRD datasets, with the creation of clear documentation, efficient data management strategies and analytical pipelines. We will start with development of workflows utilising CPRD's medium fidelity synthetic datasets because they resemble

"the real world CPRD data with respect to the data types, data values, data formats, data structure and table relationships" Ref: https://www.cprd.com/synthetic-data
