Collecting Research Outcomes - No longer in Researchfish ®

Please note concerning your annual update of outcomes

The Danish Cancer Society is no longer using Researchfish® for the reporting of research outcomes of the DCS-funded awards. All data submitted in Researchfish® until April 2022 has been retrieved from the system.

It is still possible for researchers with a personal account in Researchfish® to access and download their research outcomes submitted in the system. The only exception is the information submitted in the Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) and Center evaluation question sets.

There is still a request for grantees to report possible results during the grant period and 3 - 10 years after. Information will be sent by e-mail as soon as a new procedure for reporting outcomes has been decided.

Increasingly, in Denmark and internationally, governments and funders are asking: what results and impacts are we getting from our funding of research? Likewise, members and supporters of the Danish Cancer Society are eager to learn more about the impacts and results of cancer research funded by the organisation.

The Danish Cancer Society (DCS) feels a strong responsibility to demonstrate the value and impact of research supported through the donations to DCS. DCS uses information that researchers provide on the outputs, outcomes and impact (subsequently referred to as ‘outcomes’) of their DCS-funded projects to report to, and engage with, both the Government, health care professionals and the public.

Collecting the outcomes of research enables DCS to:

provide a strong evidence base to support the continued funding of cancer research
improve the quality of reporting about research outcomes
strengthen policy and health care development
develop and maintain a long term relationship with award holders through the capture of new developments and impacts from research after an award has finished
improve communication with researchers.
