2. SHAPES Individual Participant Data Study
Phase 2: The SHAPES Individual Participant Data (IPD) Study
The next phase will explore research projects that are similar to SHAPES that have been carried out across the world.
The aim is to work together with other international researchers to share information from different research projects.
This phase will explore whether the findings from phase 1 of SHAPES are similar to findings in other populations.
This is important to know if the findings from SHAPES are similar to other populations outside of Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK.
