OnCo record `2017` (Year). Data CC BY-NC 4.0, attribute "Data from OnCo (onco.cc)"; commercial use needs a licence.

## TL;DR

Everything OnCo dates to 2017: 629 entries, 166 papers, 152 papers listed on people's pages, 130 landmarks and 75 trials reported. Each line links to the record it was read from, so the year is a view of the corpus rather than a second copy of it.

## Summary

629 dated entries in OnCo fall in 2017: 166 papers, 152 papers listed on people's pages, 130 landmarks, 75 trials reported, 53 approvals, 23 regulatory events, 16 companies founded, 5 technologies, 4 journals founded, 3 laws and regulations and 2 guideline changes.

Of those, 20 to the day, 5 to the month and 604 to the year only. Most of the corpus dates a fact to the year, because that is what the source it was read from gives; regulatory events and the readout calendar are the parts that carry a full date.

Everything on this page is generated from the other records. It holds no fact of its own, and it changes when they do.
