As the last leaves fall, the daylight hours dim, and the air becomes crisp,
we encourage you to find some hot, mulled cider, and enjoy ICPSR’s fall
edition of DataBytes!
Reflecting on the 2019 Biennial ICPSR Meeting

Over 170 attendees from 86 institutions joined ICPSR in Ann Arbor for 18

meeting highlighted ICPSR’s current data collections, collaborations,
data-related tools, and evolving data projects. The meeting featured a
keynote data story from Dr. Raj Chetty titled: “Improving Equality of
Opportunity in America: New Insights form Big Data
<https://youtu.be/NJwG13SE2Gg>.” It also featured a red carpet welcome
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N93HJeky3Q8&list=PLqC9lrhW1VvYPbfzPGl9w0ZdAdvyNkGVx&index=2&t=31s>

Fall into Our Team – ICPSR is Hiring Data Curators!

Join ICPSR’s team
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/files/ICPSR/enewsletters/data_curator.html> of
talented data curators! The core charge of an ICPSR Data Curator is to gain
a functional understanding of research studies using the data and
documentation deposited and convey that understanding to secondary
researchers through the creation of summary descriptions, metadata and
other study documents. And of course, to have fun doing it! *Applications
are due November 15.*
Enjoy Autumn. Think Summer.

The ICPSR Summer Program is excited to announce its four-week session dates
with the first session beginning June 22, 2020, and the second session
