HERON Toronto update powered by newer, faster hardware and load process
With HERON Toronto we are on newer and faster hardware. Users will likely notice faster query response times. We have also streamlined our monthly process of loading data from various sources into HERON so that we can deliver the data to users faster.
With this release, data in REDCap SQL fields will also be loaded into HERON. The browsing experience for these fields will be indistinguishable from multiple choice fields. To add your REDCap project to HERON, register your project after going over the directions for readying your project.
Please note: Searches involving Frontiers Research Participant Registry patients will return an incorrect number. See #2451 for more information.

We are actively working on enhancing the types of data included. Stay tuned to our roadmap to track progress toward upcoming releases.
