The Research Exchange is OCRA’s open platform for gynecologic oncology. It links three services: the Living Lab patient registry, the Discovery Lab data platform, and Research Pulse weekly updates — connecting patients, clinicians, and researchers to accelerate ovarian, uterine, and related cancer research.
Research Exchange
The Research Exchange is a global AI-powered platform that connects patients, researchers, clinicians, advocates.
An Integrated Approach to Discovery
The Research Exchange redefines the linear model of traditional research—from lab to clinic to patient—by offering a holistic interactive ecosystem of patients, researchers, and scientists.
Your Experience Powering Progress
Living Lab
The Living Lab, a patient registry, is a secure platform that offers a way to contribute to one of the largest data sets for ovarian and uterine cancers. It captures patient reported outcomes, quality of life measures, and financial impacts—information often missing from traditional research studies. By participating, you are helping to create tangible progress as well as a lasting legacy.
Collaboration at the Speed of Inspiration
Discovery Lab
Our mission is to foster collaborative discovery at global scale. Researchers can collaborate in real-time with global colleagues, access patient-reported priorities to guide their work, bypass traditional publication bottlenecks through micropublications, and contribute to a collaborative platform where individual discoveries build upon each other reshaping the traditional research cycle from isolated, slow-moving studies to rapid, interconnected advances that can immediately impact patient care.
Stay Current and Connected
Research Pulse
Research Pulse uses AI to provide tailored weekly research updates to patients, survivors, advocates, researchers, and clinicians, matching their areas of interest. Through its visual, interactive interface, users can explore the science behind their lived experience, validate findings against the broader literature, and discover new research avenues—turning information sharing into active community engagement that accelerates discovery.
Sharing Data Saves Lives.
