Data-Intensive Research Conference

DATA-INTENSIVE RESEARCH CONFERENCE

Held virtually on Tuesdays and Thursdays, July 20 - August 5, 2021. All sessions are central time.

Researchers now have access to full count individual-level microdata from the U.S. Census spanning 1850 to 2010. Never before have social scientists had access to population data of this size and scope. These data present extraordinary opportunities, including novel approaches to research on aging and the later life course, but also some challenges. Our goals for this event are to:

  • highlight research that leverages expansive data resources,
  • provide training opportunities for working with these data resources, and
  • connect scholars with one another and with data experts.
