Upcoming Events

Interdisciplinary Association for Population Health Science (IAPHS)

Sep 29, 2026 to Oct 2, 2026
Portland, OR

We will be exhibiting at the 2026 IAPHS Conference. Stop by our exhibit table to talk data to us. IPUMS is also hosting a pre-conference workshop, Linking & Harmonizing Spatial Population Data: IPUMS Resources for U.S. & International Contexts, on Tuesday, September 29 from 8:30am-12:30pm.   


Webinar: Accelerating Migration Research in International Contexts with Harmonized Census Data

Oct 5, 2026
Virtual

12:00-1:00pm ET
Register for GSA Webinar
Held in partnership with Gerontological Society of America (GSA) and International Migration Research Network (IMISCOE)
This webinar will provide an introduction to IPUMS, focusing on the breadth of available data with special focus on topics related to immigration and migration within the context of aging research. Census microdata are a rich source of information on migration within and between countries, allowing for the study of change over time, boasting sample sizes that facilitate disaggregation, and situating individuals within their household and family contexts. The webinar will include demonstrations of our online data access system and online tabulator as well as a discussion with IMISCOE representatives.


Workshop: Studying Mortality using Harmonized National Health Interview Survey Linked Mortality File Data (NHIS-LMF) from IPUMS

Oct 14, 2026
Virtual

10:00 am - 1:00 pm ET
Register for PAA Virtual Workshop
Held in partnership with the Population Association of America (PAA)
This workshop will introduce IPUMS-harmonized versions of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) collected by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), including a dataset of NHIS survey data linked to death certificate information – the Longitudinal Mortality File (LMF). Survey linked mortality data such as the LMF fill a critical knowledge gap about the correlates of mortality. In this workshop, we introduce the IPUMS NHIS data and discuss how linked population survey-death certificate data can fill in gaps in official mortality statistics and address broader mortality related questions. The workshop will include a hands-on activity where we will calculate mortality statistics using the LMF data harmonized by IPUMS.


Gerontological Society of America (GSA)

Nov 4, 2026 to Nov 7, 2026
National Harbor, MD

IPUMS will be exhibiting at the GSA 2026 Annual Scientific Meeting. Stop by our exhibit booth (506) to talk data to us.


Webinar: Practical Use of IPUMS Census Microdata: From Online Data Analysis to Mapping

Nov 10, 2026
Virtual

9:00am & 7:00pm CT
Register for SDA Webinar
This webinar will demonstrate how to use the Survey Documentation and Analysis (SDA) tool with IPUMS Census microdata to analyze changes in educational attainment over time at detailed geographic levels. Participants will learn how to generate statistical tables using SDA and then use those outputs as inputs for GIS software. The session shows how tabular census data can be transformed into maps, helping users visualize geographic patterns and trends across places and time.


Virtual Office Hours

Nov 12, 2026
Virtual

10:00-11:30am

Registration is required to attend virtual office hours, but you can drop in anytime between 10:00am and 11:30am CT with your questions for the researchers that make IPUMS and NTIA possible.

About Virtual Office Hours: Virtual Office Hours are held quarterly and are a chance to connect data experts with data users to get their questions answered in a setting similar to a conference exhibit hall, but in an online format. The goal is to provide regular opportunities for face-to-face, personalized support from data experts in a casual atmosphere.
