Real-world data (RWD) are becoming increasingly critical to clinical research. The FDA has put forth [definitions surrounding RWD](https://www.fda.gov/science-research/science-and-research-special-topics/real-world-evidence), as well as issued guidance around its use in research emphasizing the principle of data being “fit-for-purpose”—selecting the data needed to answer the question at hand. Meanwhile, stakeholders engaged in clinical development have increasingly recognized that RWD will enable them to conduct studies faster, at a lower cost, and often, with a more representative and diverse population. However, not all RWD is fit-for-purpose—that is, captured and stored in such a way that the data is ready to address the question at hand. In order to move forward with using RWD in a way that is efficient and effective, we need to build a shared understanding of the different types of data within the broad umbrella that is RWD and make clear which type of RWD is fit-for-purpose for a specific question. ![Alex Vance](https://info.holmusk.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Alex%20Vance.jpeg?width=45&name=Alex%20Vance.jpeg) [Alex Vance](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/author/alex-vance) [Read More](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/ehr-data-hold-the-key-to-improving-and-accelerating-behavioral-health-research) ![](https://info.holmusk.com/hubfs/hospital-g23a1d6cc3_1920.jpg) [RWD,](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/rwd) [behavioral health,](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/behavioral-health) [data capture,](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/data-capture) [NeuroBlu Database,](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/neuroblu-database) [scales,](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/scales) [disease severity,](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/disease-severity) [electronic health record,](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/electronic-health-record) [hospitalization risk](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/tag/hospitalization-risk) ### [The value of NeuroBlu Data: Reflections on our study in The Lancet Psychiatry](https://info.holmusk.com/blog/the-value-of-neuroblu-data-reflections-on-our-study-in-the-lancet-psychiatry) Apr 20, 2023 10:49:13 AM I recently led a team of researchers in a large-scale observational study, which was accepted and published by [*The Lancet Psychiatry*](https://doi.org/10.1016/S2215-0366(23)00066-4).
