It is in the same format, the same template and has the same business rules attached to it. No need to go through a procedure of mental mapping of what that data means. It integrates the external research teams with your own organisation by hav- ing access to information on a real-time basis. Social media such as Facebook, a great public cloud example, is starting to become an extension of reaching people who are located in remote places. Neglected diseases are an area where more community come together helped by The Gates Foundation and from companies including Pfizer, Lilly, Merck and GSK.
