Benefits of membership include:
- Occasional email updates on consortium publications, activities, and topics of interest (typically, several per month).
- Potential to participate in individual studies as assistant or a co-author, so fellows can benefit from gaining different skills.
- Clearing-house for relevant studies (to prevent duplication) and a referral base for collaboration. Invitations for research related events, activities and workshops support by the Research Consortium to broaden research skills and knowledge. Especially that most of these events are private, with access restricted to members.

- Active members may use the Research Consortium name and logo for consortium-related business.
The consortium is not meant to be exclusive or restrictive. Nonetheless, membership applications will be evaluated by consortium administrators. The purpose of this review is only to assure that applicants fulfill our minimal membership requirements and that new investigators will be compatible with the existing members. Naturally, being a member of Outcomes Research Consortium in no way precludes any independent research investigators might care to pursue.
