AIR·MS Training

 

Fall 2025 Training Sessions

We will be holding 3 AIR·MS training sessions this Fall. These sessions will introduce you to the AIR·MS environment and AI-related tools through live demonstrations you can follow along with. Each session will be offered in a hybrid format, with our team onsite to provide support and answer questions. Material will be provided 1 week prior to each session for registered users.

Please note: You will need to have prior access to Minerva and AIR·MS OMOP De-ID dataset to participate in certain areas of this training. If you don’t have yet, you can follow these steps (NB: to access SailPoint you will need to be connected to the Mount Sinai network either by being onsite or by using VPN):

  1. Check that you have an ISMMS (School Network) Account. If you don’t, you can request it on SailPoint by selecting “School Network Account”
  2. If you haven’t yet, request a Minerva Account filling out this form. Please note that if you are not a PI, your PI should provide approval via email
  3. Request access to AIR·MS OMOP De-ID dataset via SailPoint by selecting “AIR.MS Production MSDW OMOP De-ID (MSSM)”. A detailed how to guide can be found here.
