PCORnet is a large, federated “network of networks” that facilitates innovative patient-centered comparative clinical effectiveness research (CER) and other health research at a national scale. As a flagship infrastructure program funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute® (PCORI)®, an independent, nonprofit research organization, PCORnet is unique among national networks given the scope and scale of the network, with linkages to 47 million unique patients and more than 13,000 sites of care. Research expertise, strong governance, and a commitment to keeping the patient at the center of all activities enables PCORnet to be used for a range of study types, from pragmatic trials to observational studies.  \nHaving just celebrated its 10th year, PCORnet® Network Partners have demonstrated that infrastructure integrating high-quality data, research expertise, and patient partnership contributes substantially to national-scale health research. PCORnet has been used to conduct more than 300 research projects in the US, including notable CER studies such as ADAPTABLE, the aspirin study, Greenlight Plus, BP Lab, as well as PREVENTABLE.1–5 PCORnet is open to all interested investigators, partners, and funders, and enables broad access to research resources through the PCORnet® Front Door.6 Given this stage of maturity, now is an appropriate juncture to reflect on lessons learned using PCORnet for the conduct of research done differently.  \nFrom the *Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute, Washington, DC; and †Department of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA.  \nThe authors declare no conflict of interest.  \nCorrespondence to: Erin Holve, PhD, MPH, MPP, 1333 New Hampshire Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20036 .

In the fall of 2024, abstracts were invited for commentaries, empirical papers, case studies, and methodological papers. Themes include uses of PCORnet for patient-centered CER and other health research; engagement and patient partnership; infrastructure enhancements, and uses of PCORnet to accelerate progress toward an integrated learning health system. All abstracts were required to focus on uses of PCORnet to enhance the culture and capacity for patient-centered CER in the service of a transformed health research ecosystem. Perspectives from patients and other partners on all themes were explicitly invited. Forty-six abstracts were received.  \nAmong the articles in this special issue, the papers reflect key dimensions of thePCORnet ecosystem. The papers review PCORI’s role in funding the PCORnet infrastructure to enhance patient-centered health research, and reflect on progress in achieving these aims.
