This service is free for KCL REDCap projects and hosted on AIMES data centre, custom requirements for REDCap projects can be requested for KCL e.g. dedicated servers if required. Please follow the instructions below and complete the Salesforce form to submit a request. Note this service is not managed by PHI DATA LAB but KCL Central IT.
