Researchers can access snapshots of data and use applications for selecting, transforming, and analyzing the data. This centralized system revolutionizes how studies are performed by giving researchers everything they need in one location. The goal of VINCI is to improve veterans' healthcare by enabling efficient research using VA's vast patient data resources.
