Implementation Reference
- The primary handler function implementing get_multiple_studies. Fetches details for multiple studies concurrently using asyncio.gather, handles errors per study, and returns a dictionary with results and metadata.async def get_multiple_studies(self, study_ids: List[str]) -> Dict: """ Get details for multiple studies concurrently. This method demonstrates the power of async concurrency by fetching multiple studies in parallel, which is much faster than sequential requests.
