DoRA 2.0 Database of Research Activity 2.0
The Database of Research Activity 2.0 (DoRA 2.0) is a publicly accessible, searchable website. 
The database covers all Queensland Health human research, not just clinical trials. It will:
- facilitate greater collaboration and communication between researchers,
- improve patients' access to research information,
- raise awareness about the benefits of health and medical research.
Researchers
- Promote your study to help recruit more participants
- Promote your research for future collaborative studies
- Search to refine your work to prevent duplicating studies
- Search to find gaps in research
Health care providers
- Keep up-to-date on the latest research being conducted in Queensland Health
- Help to refer patients to an appropriate study
- Aid future collaborations by providing researcher contact information
Community
- Find out what research is occurring in Queensland Health and in your local health facility
- Search for studies you might be interested in participating in (to be discussed with your health care provider)
- Help raise awareness of the benefits of health and medical research
Industry
- Aid future collaborations by providing contact information of researchers in the field
- Promotes Queensland Health sites as being active in clinical research and capable of taking on studies
- Gives an idea of how much research is being conducted in a therapeutic area and could guide decisions on capacity of local researchers to take on new studies
DoRA 2.0 downloads research data from the Queensland ethics committee database (AU-RED) and presents it in a format to allow researchers and other interested public stakeholders to search for and view summary level information about research being conducted within Queensland Health facilities.
