FDA says it is posting computer code and a technical roadmap to allow researchers and developers to customize and use the agency’s new MyStudies app. An online [notice](https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/ScienceResearch/ucm624785.htm?ref=fdaweb.com) says the app is designed to facilitate input of real-world data directly by patients that can be linked to electronic health data supporting clinical trials, pragmatic trials, observational studies, and registries.

MyStudies was developed by FDA and private sector partners and is being released to the public in open source code so the app and patient data storage system can be reconfigured by organizations conducting clinical research.

The open source code is being released for versions that run on Apple’s ResearchKit and the Google Android ResearchStack framework.
