SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:June 2 - July 30\, 2026 T/TH  Course - Sampling in Practice
DESCRIPTION:June 2-July 30\, 2026\, T/TH\n1:00pm - 3:00pm\nA live course via Zoom. Registration and payment are required a minimum of two weeks prior to the start of the course.\n\nFounded in 1948\, the Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques is designed specifically to meet the needs of professionals and graduate students seeking to deepen their expertise in survey methodology and data collection. Offered through the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science within the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan\, the program provides a rigorous and flexible curriculum that blends theoretical foundations with practical application — entirely online.\n\nSampling in Practice\n\nUnlocking the art and science of sampling with an applied\, hands-on approach\, the course Sampling in Practice is designed for applied practitioners who want to master real-world sampling techniques through active learning and practical programming. Students will learn about probability sampling methods\, including simple random sampling\, stratification\, systematic selection\, cluster sampling\, probability proportional to size sampling\, and multistage sampling. We will also cover sampling cost models\, sampling error estimation techniques\, non-sampling errors\, missing data\, and nonprobability samples. The course emphasizes practical implementation\, featuring interactive coding exercises and in-class examples to reinforce each concept. A culminating project will give students the opportunity to integrate multiple techniques into a comprehensive sample design and demonstrate the profession in designing surveys\, selecting subjects\, analyzing sample data\, and solving real sampling problems using modern statistical tools.\n\nWhy take this course? \n\nThe course is crafted for students and practitioners eager: \n\nTo build proficiency in modern sampling techniques through active engagement and practical coding experience\nTo understand the basic ideas\, concepts and principles of probability sampling from an applied perspective\nTo be able to identify and appropriately apply sampling techniques to survey design problems\nTo understand and be able to assess the impact of the sample design on survey estimates\nTo be able to compute the sample size for a variety of sample designs\nTo learn how to design and select a probability sample involving complex sampling techniques in a survey project\, and receive expert feedback on a sampling report. \n\nYajuan Si is a Research Associate Professor in the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science\, located within in the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. She holds a Ph.D. in statistical science from Duke and received postdoctoral training at Columbia. Yajuan’s research focuses on methodology development\, from data analysis to study design\, in streams of Bayesian statistics\, linking design- and model-based approaches for survey inference\, data integration\, missing data analysis\, confidentiality protection\, and causal inference\, with applications in the social and health sciences.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:UC3M Group Advising Session
DESCRIPTION:This UC3M Group Advising session is for students applying to study abroad in Winter 2027. We recommend attending sessions earlier in the summer if possible.  If you are still comparing or exploring options\, you may benefit  from meeting with an IPE peer advisor or scheduling a1:1 advising appointment with the UC3M Advisor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:From the Lab to the Public: Science Communication across Audiences
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a science communication panel\, co-organized by MiSciWriters. A panel that includes our visiting speaker Prof. Raychelle Burks (a renown and award winning forensic chemist as well as prominent science communicator to the public on tv\, podcasts\, and in print)\, Matthew Adams (the digital content manager in the Dean's Office at LSA)\, Prof. Kaitlin Raimi (a UM faculty in Public Policy who is an expert in how people think about STEM-based policies and technologies)\, and Dr. Sarah Derouin (a freelance science journalist) will lead a conversation that addresses a fundamental challenge of STEM workers: When someone asks “what do you do?” what do you tell them? How do you convey the impact of your research to different people? These four experts will share their perspectives on how science communication can be used as a tool to translate research from the lab into the public eye. From academia and higher education administration to journalism and public policy\, these panelists will discuss the tools and tactics they use in their daily work to convey information to specific audiences. Please join us for light snacks and an interactive and engaging session with these experts in science communication.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Psychedelics and Arousal States
DESCRIPTION:This talk is part of the Michigan Psychedelic Center's 2026 Seminar Series: Psychedelics — From Cells to Society. Learn more about the series at https://michiganpsychedelic.med.umich.edu/education-events/. \n\nABOUT THE TALK\nSerotonergic psychedelics (e.g.\, psilocybin\, DMT\, LSD)\, primarily known for their mind-altering properties\, have garnered widespread attention for their potential to treat an array of physical and mental health conditions. However\, they are also known to increase wakefulness in animal models and produce a neurophysiological profile opposite to that seen during general anesthesia. This is clinically relevant given there is a lack of a pharmacological agent to reverse general anesthesia. \n\nTherefore\, we tested whether the serotonergic psychedelic 2\,5-dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine (DOI) could induce behavioral arousal and restore brain dynamics associated with wakefulness during general anesthesia. \n\nWe provide the first evidence that DOI can reverse general anesthesia and restore wake-like brain dynamics during propofol or isoflurane anesthesia\, and this reversal is mediated by 5-HT2A receptor activation. Importantly\, this effect was not blocked by inactivation of cortical sites known to be rich in 5-HT2A receptors\, prompting a re-evaluation of the role of the cortex in states of consciousness.\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nEmma Huels\, PhD\, is a postdoctoral research fellow in the University of Michigan Medical School Department of Anesthesiology with affiliations in the Center for Consciousness Science and Michigan Psychedelic Center.
