Upcoming Events

IPUMS will be exhibiting at the 2022 Interdisciplinary Association for Population Health Science Conference. There are also two IAPHS workshops that may be of interest to IPUMS data users:

• Contextualizing inequities: Using IPUMS data to describe population-health inequities and study upstream socioeconomic and geographic determinants of health
  September 20; 8:30-12:30PM CT
  This workshop, led by senior IPUMS researcher staff, will review IPUMS data suitable for surveilling population-level health inequities and studying upstream socioeconomic and geographic determinants of health. Workshop leaders will describe the relevant IPUMS data, highlight their utility for exploring health inequities, and provide time for hands-on learning and discussion.
• Leveraging Academic-Community Partnerships to Advance the Measurement of Structural Racism in Health Equity Research
  September 20; 1:00-5:00PM CT
  This workshop, led by senior research staff at the University of Minnesota’s Center for Antiracism Research for Health Equity, seeks to provide participants with a theoretical and analytic understanding of the methodologies often used to measure structural racism. The workshop will include opportunities to explore publicly available datasets (including IPUMS) to measure historical and contemporary manifestations of structural racism, a panel discussion led by community organizations about academic-community partnerships to advance structural racism research, and opportunities for attendees to collectively brainstorm ways to leverage existing data sources while centering community needs.

13h00-14h30 TU

PMA and IPUMS PMA are organizing a webinar in French! Nous organiserons un webinaire en français le mois prochain sur les données PMA longitudinales! Inscrivez-vous ici.

11:00am-1:30pm ET

This workshop will be led by Sarah Flood and Liana Sayer, PIs of the NICHD-funded Time Use Data for Health and Well-Being project. The workshop will provide an overview of the 2021 ATUS Time Use Survey and Well-Being module data. The Well-Being Module (WB Module) is a special supplement to the ATUS that collects quality of life data for three randomly selected activities reported for each respondent, information about how well-rested the respondent felt on the day about which he or she was interviewed, and information about health, including whether the respondent has high blood pressure, takes pain medication, and self-reported health status. The IPUMS Time Use team secured funding from the National Institute for Child Health and Human Development and the National Science Foundation for a 2021 Well-Being Module. More information on the webinar can be found here.

9:00am-1:30pm ET

Register to join the IPUMS team for the workshop, "Harmonized Census & Survey Data for Comparative Life Course Research: An Introduction to IPUMS" as part of the Society for Longitudinal and Lifecourse Studies (SLLS) Conference. A limited number of SLLS workshop fee stipends are available.

IPUMS will be exhibiting at the 2022 GSA Annual Scientific Meeting. We will be in booth 124 in the exhibit hall. Attendees can also attend our pre-conference workshop, Free Census & Survey Data for Aging Research: An Introduction to IPUMS in an International Context, on Wednesday, November 2 from 8:00am-noon. With the support of our NDIRA colleagues, we are offering a limited number of stipends for the GSA workshop. 

IPUMS will be exhibiting at the 2022 National Council on Family Relations (NCFR) Annual Conference. Conference registrants can also attend the IPUMS pre-conference workshop, "Studying Families in Context With Population Data From IPUMS", on November 15 from 9:00am-12:00pm CT. We are offering a limited number of NCFR workshop fee stipends.

11:00am-1:30pm ET

This workshop will be led by Kamila Kolpashnikova, a family sociologist and VISTA postdoctoral fellow at York University. She studies gendered differences in how people use their time. Her paper published in PLoS One introduces an online visualization tool for ATUS-X data. This tool was developed to create quick visualizations of time-use diaries for initial exploratory analyses. In this workshop, she will talk about visualization of time use data and provide a guided tour of the ATUS-X data visualization tool. More information about the webinar is available here.

IPUMS will be exhibiting at the ASSA 2023 Annual Meeting in booth 411.
