ICPSR, in the midst of celebrating its 60th anniversary, is excited to
announce another milestone: Robert (Rob) J. Franzese Jr. will be the 10th
director of the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social
Research.

“The Consortium is extraordinarily pleased that Rob has agreed to assume
the leadership of the ICPSR Summer Program,” said ICPSR Director Margaret
Levenstein. “Rob’s passion for teaching methods and for building an
inclusive social science community echo the values of the Summer Program.
He brings the experience of a long-time instructor in the program and the
vision of an innovative political methodologist. As the program begins
preparations to welcome its 60th cohort, we are confident that, with Rob’s
leadership, the program will continue to provide impactful experiences for
its participants that transform social science itself. We are also
extremely grateful to Mike Traugott for the steady, yet nimble hand that he
has provided over the last three, very challenging summers,” Levenstein
said.

ICPSR has partnered with the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) to
develop a new, interactive data platform for sharing MCC’s evaluation
catalog of data. The Millennium Challenge Corporation Evidence Platform is
now live, offering access to important data on MCC’s programs.

The Millennium Challenge Corporation is a US foreign assistance agency that
is helping lead the fight against global poverty (MCC.gov

MCC provides grants to developing countries in order to support sustainable
growth and improved infrastructure to better people’s lives. The Evidence
Platform encourages the use of MCC’s data, documentation, and analysis as
global public goods to support mutual accountability for the agency and its
country partners, and to encourage learning from measured results. The
Evidence Platform is accessible and easy to use. Its goal is to encourage
use of MCC’s evidence data for researchers and the public. See the full

*July 27: Webinar: Neighborhoods as a Social Determinant of Health*
This webinar will discuss how neighborhoods operate as a social determinant
of health, and how local context can “get under the skin” to shape health
disparities. Using data from the National Neighborhood Data Archive
(NaNDA), presenters will highlight the diverse pathways by which
neighborhood characteristics can shape health, including socioeconomic
structure, health care access, transportation, broadband internet access,
and political partisanship. [Register
