Talk Title: Biomedical Data Science: The Hope, Hype, and Promise

Abstract: Data science was introduced as a “new” profession in the early 1960s, yet the Office of Data Science Strategy at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was not established until 2018. Artificial intelligence (AI) traces its roots to at least the 1950s, with its first application as an expert system in medicine in the early 1970s. Yet, the NIH Working Group on AI was not established until 2018 as well, with their first report issued in 2019. This is not to say that these topics have been neglected over the past half-century, but it begs the question of why have they only now come to the forefront of biomedicine? We have seen multiple AI booms and busts, each of which has caused massive hype, dream crushing failures, and notable advancements (some more flashy than others) along the way. This talk is not intended to be a history lesson, but it will provide some context for how we got to where we are and what this says about where biomedical research and healthcare seems to be heading. I will further provide insight into how various innovations in computation, policy, and industry have pushed the field forward and where recently established programs to expand AI activities, such as AIM-AHEAD and Bridge2AI, may push the biomedical research community over the next decade. To ground this presentation, I will provide examples of how AI and data science more generally have driven activities at the All of Us Research Program and the Vanderbilt Health Data Science Center.

Analysis of Complex Sample Survey Data

Open for registration!

June 6 - July 29, 2022
10:00am-12:00pm
M/W/F

This course provides practical methods and tools to analyze complex survey data with a hands-on introduction to the use of specialized statistical software procedures. The course focuses on case studies with specific large-scale national surveys: the National Comorbidity Survey-Replication (NCS-R), the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), and the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). Relevant design features of the NCS-R, NHANES and HRS include survey weights that take into account differences in probability of selection into the sample and differences in response rates, as well as stratification and clustering in the multistage sampling procedures used in identifying the sampled households and individuals. After introducing essential concepts related to complex sample designs, the course will turn to the construction of survey weights, estimation of sampling variance, descriptive analysis, regression analysis, and finally special topics in the analysis of survey data. Participants can expect to work on homework exercises, computer lab exercises, and a final analysis project.

Why take this course?
- To gain an understanding of modern methods and software for the secondary analysis of survey data collected from large complex samples
- To have the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with the instructors when walking through analyses of survey data
- To see various examples of applied statistical analyses of survey data
- To have the experience of writing a scientific paper that presents an analysis of complex sample survey data, and getting expert feedback on that paper.

Course Hours: 3

Instructors: Brady T. West, Yajuan Si

Prerequisite: Two graduate-level courses in statistical methods, familiarity with basic sample design concepts, and familiarity with data analytic techniques such as linear and logistic regression.

All 2022 courses will be offered in an alternative remote format.

Carbon pricing is one measure that many experts believe can be implemented quickly and can dramatically lower carbon emissions. Mary Garton, of the Citizens’ Climate Lobby and the Climate Reality Project will discuss the role of national carbon pricing in addressing the climate crisis. This presentation is aimed to be understandable by those with no previous knowledge, yet educational for those already interested and active in working toward climate solutions.

Mary Garton is a nurse and educator. Ms. Garton has participated in 28 lobby meetings with 15 different members of Congress or their legislative aides. She has been active with Citizens Climate Lobby for 5 years, and believes, like they do, that the best way to fight one’s own climate anxiety is to actively work towards a viable solution.

This event is in partnership with the Ann Arbor District Library and will take place at the Westgate Branch of the Ann Arbor District Library, 2503 Jackson Ave.

RSVP here: http://bit.ly/WLJune22

Our aim is to bring liberals, conservatives, libertarians- everyone across the political spectrum- together for constructive conversation. The goal of WeListen discussions is not to debate or argue, but to understand the views and values of others and to learn from their perspectives. The session will begin with a brief content presentation to provide a basic understanding of the topic. No specific level of knowledge is required to participate in WeListen discussions.

By participating in WeListen sessions, staff members will:
- Expand understanding of a prominent political topic
- Practice discussing difficult topics with others,
- Gain openness to new ideas and perspectives,
- Learn to productively challenge an idea, and
- Form a sense of community among fellow staff members.

Lessons Learned: Reflecting on Michigan's Response to COVID-19 Health Disparities (June 10, 2022 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/94558 94558-21749264@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, June 10, 2022 10:00am
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Poverty Solutions

The final event in the COVID-19 reflections series will feature Dr. Joneigh Khaldun, the vice president and chief health equity officer at CVS Health and former chief medical executive for the State of Michigan, in conversation with Celeste Watkins-Hayes, faculty director of the Center for Racial Justice. Together, they will reflect on the two-year anniversary of the pandemic and will discuss the key lessons learned from Michigan's response to COVID-19 health disparities.

The Center for Racial Justice is partnering with Poverty Solutions and the National Center for Institutional Diversity to co-host a virtual event series that reflects on the local and state-level policies that have been instrumental in responding to the racialized health and economic disparities stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. The series brings together a diverse group of changemakers, including national and local policymakers, journalists, researchers, and community leaders, to (1) meditate on the past and current racial dynamics of COVID-19 in Michigan and Detroit, and to (2) discuss the policies, programs, and practices that have successfully responded to the needs of communities of color disproportionately impacted by the pandemic.

Speaker Bios:

Joneigh S. Khaldun, MD, MPH, FACEP is a nationally recognized healthcare executive, health policy and public health expert who currently serves as the Vice President and Chief Health Equity Officer for CVS Health. In this role she advances strategy, programs and policy to achieve health equity across all CVS Health lines of business. Prior to this she served as Chief Medical Executive for the State of Michigan and Chief Deputy Director for Health in the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, where she oversaw public health, Medicaid, behavioral health, and aging services. She was the lead strategist guiding Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer's COVID-19 response and in 2021 was appointed by President Biden to the COVID-19 Health Equity Task Force.

Dr. Khaldun has spearheaded the design and implementation of several system-changing projects at the intersection of public health and clinical medicine. She is known for her ability to lead teams through crisis as well as take innovative and bold ideas from conceptualization to precise operational execution and results. Prior to her role in the State of Michigan, she was appointed by Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan to lead the rebuilding of the Detroit Health Department. There, her accomplishments include building the city's opioid overdose response efforts; spearheading programs to address infant mortality and teen pregnancy during a time when Detroit saw the lowest infant mortality rate ever recorded in history; designing and implementing a neighborhood-based lead outreach and testing program; launching Detroit's first online restaurant inspection reporting system; creating a professional development program for staff; and successfully leading Detroit's response to the largest hepatitis A outbreak in modern U.S. history. Dr. Khaldun formerly served as Chief Medical Officer of the Baltimore City Health Department overseeing all clinical operations and worked in the Obama-Biden Administration's Office of Health Reform, supporting implementation of the Affordable Care Act. She has received multiple awards including 40 under 40 Leader in Minority Health by the National Minority Quality Forum; 40 Under 40 Leader in Public Health by the the Beaumont Foundation; George Washington University Monumental Alumni Award; 2020 Crain's Detroit Newsmaker of the Year, Detroit News 2021 Michiganian of the Year; and 2022 USA Today Woman of the Year.

This course provides practical methods and tools to analyze complex survey data with a hands-on introduction to the use of specialized statistical software procedures. The course focuses on case studies with specific large-scale national surveys: the National Comorbidity Survey-Replication (NCS-R), the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), and the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). Relevant design features of the NCS-R, NHANES and HRS include survey weights that take into account differences in probability of selection into the sample and differences in response rates, as well as stratification and clustering in the multistage sampling procedures used in identifying the sampled households and individuals. After introducing essential concepts related to complex sample designs, the course will turn to the construction of survey weights, estimation of sampling variance, descriptive analysis, regression analysis, and finally special topics in the analysis of survey data. Participants can expect to work on homework exercises, computer lab exercises, and a final analysis project.

Why take this course?
- To gain an understanding of modern methods and software for the secondary analysis of survey data collected from large complex samples
- To have the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with the instructors when walking through analyses of survey data
- To see various examples of applied statistical analyses of survey data
- To have the experience of writing a scientific paper that presents an analysis of complex sample survey data, and getting expert feedback on that paper.

Course Hours: 3

Instructors: Brady T. West, Yajuan Si

Prerequisite: Two graduate-level courses in statistical methods, familiarity with basic sample design concepts, and familiarity with data analytic techniques such as linear and logistic regression.

All 2022 courses will be offered in an alternative remote format.

Organized By: Poverty Solutions

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government expanded the unemployment insurance (UI) system in unprecedented ways, stabilizing individual households and the U.S. economy during a global pandemic, and jumpstarting the economic recovery. However, this significant federal intervention was needed because, under normal circumstances, our UI system fails to cover enough workers, pay out sufficient benefits, and meaningfully connect displaced workers with new opportunities for training and employment. If the existing system had remained in effect during the pandemic, it would have failed to achieve its central aims of stabilizing individual households through temporary job loss, and the macro economy during economic downturns.

To ensure the lessons learned during the pandemic are not lost, the University of Michigan’s Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy is hosting a two-day virtual symposium on June 16 and 17 with participation by some of the nation’s leading experts on our UI system. Participants will discuss the critical challenges facing our UI system, including the appropriate roles for the federal and state governments, ensuring adequate benefits and coverage for more workers, the role of the UI system in training and retraining workers, and how to properly fund this vital social and economic system.

The symposium will be chaired by Sandy Levin, who has continued his three decades of work on UI in Congress as the Distinguished Policymaker in Residence at the Ford School. Professor Luke Shaefer, director of Poverty Solutions, will join Sandy in leading the event.

This is the first of two webinars that will introduce participants to a general framework for evaluating and maximizing data quality when working with data from a variety of different study designs. In this first webinar, we will introduce a general framework for evaluating total data quality (TDQ), considering concepts related to sampling, nonresponse, measurement, processing, and data analysis. We will then discuss how to apply this framework to different types of data sources, including designed data (such as surveys) and found / organic data (which arise following some organic process, e.g., consumer transactions), focusing on various metrics for evaluating total data quality.

Not for academic credit workshop.

Introduction to Survey Methodology

Webinar open for registration!

June 24, 2022
9:00am-1:00pm
F

This four-hour webinar will focus on the survey methodology topics most important for understanding the objectives of responsive survey design and its applications. One set of tools will focus on maximizing participation and minimizing attrition of survey participants. Core survey methodology tools for encouraging participation will be featured. These tools include incentives, tailoring refusal conversion, switching modes, and tracking strategies. A second set of tools will focus on measurement construction. These tools include mode options, questionnaire design issues, and special instruments (such as life history calendars) to minimize reporting error. Each portion of the course will feature examples applying each specific tool to various real studies.

Not for academic credit.

Instructor: Brady T. West

All 2022 courses will be held in an alternative remote format.

Analysis of Complex Sample Survey Data

Open for registration!

June 6 - July 29, 2022
10:00am-12:00pm
M/W/F

This course provides practical methods and tools to analyze complex survey data with a hands-on introduction to the use of specialized statistical software procedures. The course focuses on case studies with specific large-scale national surveys: the National Comorbidity Survey-Replication (NCS-R), the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), and the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). Relevant design features of the NCS-R, NHANES and HRS include survey weights that take into account differences in probability of selection into the sample and differences in response rates, as well as stratification and clustering in the multistage sampling procedures used in identifying the sampled households and individuals. After introducing essential concepts related to complex sample designs, the course will turn to the construction of survey weights, estimation of sampling variance, descriptive analysis, regression analysis, and finally special topics in the analysis of survey data. Participants can expect to work on homework exercises, computer lab exercises, and a final analysis project.

Why take this course?
- To gain an understanding of modern methods and software for the secondary analysis of survey data collected from large complex samples
- To have the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with the instructors when walking through analyses of survey data
- To see various examples of applied statistical analyses of survey data
- To have the experience of writing a scientific paper that presents an analysis of complex sample survey data, and getting expert feedback on that paper.

Course Hours: 3

Instructors: Brady T. West, Yajuan Si

Prerequisite: Two graduate-level courses in statistical methods, familiarity with basic sample design concepts, and familiarity with data analytic techniques such as linear and logistic regression.

All 2022 courses will be offered in an alternative remote format.

Analysis of Complex Sample Survey Data

Open for registration!

June 6 - July 29, 2022
10:00am-12:00pm
M/W/F

This course provides practical methods and tools to analyze complex survey data with a hands-on introduction to the use of specialized statistical software procedures. The course focuses on case studies with specific large-scale national surveys: the National Comorbidity Survey-Replication (NCS-R), the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), and the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). Relevant design features of the NCS-R, NHANES and HRS include survey weights that take into account differences in probability of selection into the sample and differences in response rates, as well as stratification and clustering in the multistage sampling procedures used in identifying the sampled households and individuals. After introducing essential concepts related to complex sample designs, the course will turn to the construction of survey weights, estimation of sampling variance, descriptive analysis, regression analysis, and finally special topics in the analysis of survey data. Participants can expect to work on homework exercises, computer lab exercises, and a final analysis project.

Why take this course?
- To gain an understanding of modern methods and software for the secondary analysis of survey data collected from large complex samples
- To have the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with the instructors when walking through analyses of survey data
- To see various examples of applied statistical analyses of survey data
- To have the experience of writing a scientific paper that presents an analysis of complex sample survey data, and getting expert feedback on that paper.

Course Hours: 3

Instructors: Brady T. West, Yajuan Si

Prerequisite: Two graduate-level courses in statistical methods, familiarity with basic sample design concepts, and familiarity with data analytic techniques such as linear and logistic regression.

All 2022 courses will be offered in an alternative remote format.

Analysis of Complex Sample Survey Data

Open for registration!

June 6 - July 29, 2022
10:00am-12:00pm
M/W/F

This course provides practical methods and tools to analyze complex survey data with a hands-on introduction to the use of specialized statistical software procedures. The course focuses on case studies with specific large-scale national surveys: the National Comorbidity Survey-Replication (NCS-R), the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), and the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). Relevant design features of the NCS-R, NHANES and HRS include survey weights that take into account differences in probability of selection into the sample and differences in response rates, as well as stratification and clustering in the multistage sampling procedures used in identifying the sampled households and individuals. After introducing essential concepts related to complex sample designs, the course will turn to the construction of survey weights, estimation of sampling variance, descriptive analysis, regression analysis, and finally special topics in the analysis of survey data. Participants can expect to work on homework exercises, computer lab exercises, and a final analysis project.

Why take this course?
- To gain an understanding of modern methods and software for the secondary analysis of survey data collected from large complex samples
- To have the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with the instructors when walking through analyses of survey data
- To see various examples of applied statistical analyses of survey data
- To have the experience of writing a scientific paper that presents an analysis of complex sample survey data, and getting expert feedback on that paper.

Course Hours: 3

Instructors: Brady T. West, Yajuan Si

Prerequisite: Two graduate-level courses in statistical methods, familiarity with basic sample design concepts, and familiarity with data analytic techniques such as linear and logistic regression.

All 2022 courses will be offered in an alternative remote format.

STS Speaker. Thinking Like an Economist: How Efficiency Replaced Equality in U.S. Public Policy (September 12, 2022 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/90018 90018-21794548@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, September 12, 2022 4:00pm
Location: Tisch Hall
Organized By: Science, Technology & Society

Between the 1960s and the 1980s, an economic style of reasoning—one focused on efficiency, incentives, choice, and competition—became prominent within U.S. public policy, including in domains that were once not seen as particularly “economic”. Drawing on historical research on policy domains ranging from environmental to welfare to antitrust policy, I show how particular intellectual communities introduced and disseminated this style of reasoning, and examine its lasting political effects. As the values of economics—especially various forms of efficiency—became institutionalized through law, regulation and organizational change, it became harder for competing claims about rights, universalism, equity, and power to gain purchase. While economic reasoning had the potential to conflict with conservative as well as liberal values, in practice it was particularly constraining for the Democratic left—the implications of which continue to be felt. This talk will illustrate this larger argument with a focus on how these dynamics played out in the arena of social policy—welfare, health, housing, and education.

The Center for Racial Justice presents Melissa Murray, in conversation with Dr. Celeste Watkins-Hayes on reproductive justice.

Racial Foundations of Public Policy is a speaker series that focuses on the historical roots and impact of race in shaping public policy as both a disciplinary field and as a course of action. Through it, we bring in renowned scholar-experts from across the country to be in conversation with Dean Celeste Watkins-Hayes, the founding director of the Center for Racial Justice at the Ford School of Public Policy. The series is open to all members of the University of Michigan community and the wider public.

This event will be presented virtually, with a community watch party available in Weill Hall's Betty Ford Auditorium.

IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK (September 18, 2022 6:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/98338 98338-21796511@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Sunday, September 18, 2022 6:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Department of Film, Television, and Media

Released in 1996, HBO’s anthology film *If These Walls Could Talk* is now, nearly 30 years later, more pertinent and timely than ever following the Supreme Court’s reversal of the landmark Roe vs. Wade decision. Demi Moore, Sissy Spacek and Cher each star in segments set in the 1950s, 1970s and 1990s which dramatize how three women make an agonizing decision to deal with an unplanned pregnancy. Ripped from today’s headlines, what makes the film special and continually relevant, as one reviewer wrote, is “the film is less about the wider political and ethical debates in which the issue of abortion is usually embedded, and more about the intimate nature of such decision-making in a woman’s life."

Co-directed and co-written by FTVM's John H. Mitchell Visiting Professor in Media Entertainment, Nancy Savoca, who will be in attendance for an introduction and Q & A.

Savoca's papers are also part of the University Library’s Special Collection Research Center.

Hon. J. Michael Luttig served for nearly fifteen years as a judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. Among other positions, he has also served as Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Office of Legal Counsel and as General Counsel to The Boeing Company. The open letter circulated by Vice President Pence on January 6, 2021, quoted Judge Luttig’s assertion that “[t]he only responsibility and power of the Vice President under the Constitution is to faithfully count the Electoral College votes as they have been cast,” and not “to alter in any way the votes that have been cast, either by rejecting certain votes or otherwise.” On June 16, 2022, Judge Luttig testified before the House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack, to the effect that President Trump and his allies had “instigated” a war on democracy. He was also one of the authors of LOST NOT STOLEN: The Conservative Case that Trump Lost and Biden Won the 2020 Presidential Election, issued in July 2022.

Annual Distinguished Lecture on Europe. Poland as a Front-Line State: How to Defend Pax Europaea (September 29, 2022 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/96531 96531-21792626@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, September 29, 2022 4:00pm
Location: Palmer Commons
Organized By: Copernicus Center for Polish Studies

After the fall of communism the independent Poland set two strategic goals. Firstly, to join the western world, to make transatlantic (NATO) and European (EU) integration the cornerstone of our security and civilizational development. Secondly, to “build the West in the East”- that means to continue the enlargement process to Ukraine and Belarus. This was perceived as the only way to guarantee the sovereignty of these states and finally bury the imperial ambitions of the Kremlin. As a consequence Poland, for the first time in history, would be surrounded by allies who would not pose any threat to its security.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine proved that these goals remain valid. There is no secure Poland without a strong West and a free, independent Ukraine. At the same time the invasion demonstrated how much the world has changed over the last three decades. The Pax Europaea (which was believed to be eternal) is in mortal danger, and with that the integrity and the global position of the western world. The outcome of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict will not only determine the security of Poland and freedom of tens of millions of people in Eastern Europe. It will also predestine the future of the West and the global balance of power.

Poland as a front-line state may have a historical role to play in this process. However the significance of Poland will depend on its ability to act not as a peripheral player but as an important partner to the US, Germany and France. A partner which is able and willing to share responsibility not only for itself but also for the future of the whole Western world.

Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz served as the first female Ambassador of Poland to the Russian Federation since the establishment of Polish–Russian relations (2014-16). Previously, she served as the Undersecretary of State at the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. From 2008 to 2012 she was a member of the Polish Russian Group on Difficult Matters. She graduated from the Institute of Sociology of the University of Warsaw in 1994 and subsequently worked at the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences. She was a deputy director of the Center for Eastern Studies and the head of its Russian Department. She is the author of numerous publications on the systemic transformation in Central-Eastern Europe, the EU, and Polish eastern policy.

This even will be held both in person and webcast via Zoom. Registration is required to attend the Zoom webinar at: https://myumi.ch/Qe9Nk.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Science, Technology, and Public Policy (STPP) Program

The Science, Technology, and Public Policy program (STPP) is honored to discuss technology, surveillance and civil liberties with Kade Crockford, the director of the Technology for Liberty Program at the ACLU of Massachusetts.

Kade works on issues at the intersection of technology and civil rights and civil liberties, focusing on how systems of surveillance and control impact not just the society in general but their primary targets—people of color, Muslims, immigrants, and dissidents. Recently, Kade led the ACLU of Massachusetts’ "Press Pause on Face Surveillance" campaign, which has thus far won the passage of a state law regulating police use of facial recognition, and eight municipal bans on government use of face surveillance technology, including in Massachusetts’ four largest cities.

This event is in-person at 1110 Weill Hall, 735 State Street, Ann Arbor and will be livestreamed. Please register at https://forms.gle/zcZpwHVCSTLmZEjt8

MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series - Should surveys produce more contextual features? Comparing contextual features by alternative definitions of neighborhoods (October 5, 2022 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/98386 98386-21796589@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, October 5, 2022 12:00pm

MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series
October 5, 2022
12:00 - 1:00 pm

Should surveys produce more contextual features? Comparing contextual features by alternative definitions of neighborhoods.

Shiyu Zhang is a PhD candidate at the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science. Before arriving at Michigan, she received master's degrees in immigration study, sociology and data science, and a bachelor's degree in psychology. Shiyu's dissertation focuses on the effect of adaptive survey design on estimates. She is also interested in collecting and using neighborhood features as auxiliary variables.

An important methodological challenge in studying neighborhood effects is how to geographically define “neighborhoods” and create contextual features to characterize the areas. In quantitative research that uses survey data, contextual features are commonly defined by census geographies like census tracts and block groups. However, the literature has called for expanding the definition of neighborhoods beyond census boundaries and exploring contextual features in geographic areas more relevant to the studied individuals.
In this research, we compare social and built environment features of neighborhoods based on three geographic definitions (i.e., census tracts, residential buffers, and respondent-informed neighborhoods). We evaluate how the alternatively defined measures influence the detected associations between contextual features and health outcomes. Our findings suggest that the neighborhood definition matters. Therefore, other than simply offering linkages to census boundaries based on participants’ geocoded location, surveys may enrich the data and support further research by producing and releasing case-specific contextual features.

Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science (MPSDS)
The University of Michigan Program in Survey Methodology was established in 2001 seeking to train future generations of survey and data scientists. In 2021, we changed our name to the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science (MPSDS). Our curriculum is concerned with a broad set of data sources including survey data, but also including social media posts, sensor data, and administrative records, as well as analytic methods for working with these new data sources. And we bring to data science a focus on data quality — which is not at the center of traditional data science. The new name speaks to what we teach and work on at the intersection of social research and data. The program offers doctorate and master of science degrees and a certificate through the University of Michigan. The program's home is the Institute for Social Research, the world's largest academically-based social science research institute.

Skin color matters. Within and across ethnoracial groups, skin color affects life experiences, including one’s financial earnings, educational opportunities, health outcomes, exposure to discrimination, interactions with the criminal justice system, and sense of group belonging. While political coalitions in the U.S. have historically revolved around ethnoracial identities, Dr. Ostfeld draws on her book (co-authored with Nicole Yadon) to argue that skin color is an increasingly important component of how people are identifying themselves and staking positions in American racial politics.

Organized By: Center on Finance, Law, and Policy

Policymakers have struggled with how to reduce long-standing inequalities based on race. Recently there have been calls for reparations with many innovative ideas. While policymakers debate how to implement these suggestions, there are many promising approaches to college access and home ownership that already exist, which accomplish some of the same goals. Prof. Trina Shanks will discuss baby bonds, child savings accounts, promise scholarships, and various home ownership incentive programs in progress, and how they could make a real difference in the lives of low to moderate income families.

DIRT (October 9, 2022 6:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/99226 99226-21797744@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Sunday, October 9, 2022 6:00pm

Organized By: Department of Film, Television, and Media

The ongoing debate over undocumented immigrants to the U.S. is effectively dramatized in Nancy Savoca’s 2004 Showtime film DIRT. The life of Savoca’s heroine, Dolores, a Salvadorian maid living in Queens, is disrupted once again when her boss of nine years, Mrs. Ortega, fires her when she decides to run for Congress on an anti-immigration platform.

Savoca showcases an entire underclass of immigrants and portrays their personal struggles in a respectful yet often comedic manner that creates great empathy beyond the sensationalist newspaper headlines. VARIETY called the film “an audience grabber as tightly condensed and emotionally resonant as its title” and added that the “film zings along with an energy, determination and spirit that are anything but depressing.”

Directed and co-written by FTVM's John H. Mitchell Visiting Professor in Media Entertainment, Nancy Savoca, who will be in attendance for an introduction and Q & A.

Brady T. West is a Research Professor in the Survey Methodology Program, located within the Survey Research Center at the Institute for Social Research on the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor (U-M) campus. He earned his PhD from the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science in 2011. Before that, he received an MA in Applied Statistics from the U-M Statistics Department in 2002, being recognized as an Outstanding First-year Applied Masters student, and a BS in Statistics with Highest Honors and Highest Distinction from the U-M Statistics Department in 2001. His current research interests include the implications of measurement error in auxiliary variables and survey paradata for survey estimation, selection bias in surveys, responsive/adaptive survey design, interviewer effects, and multilevel regression models for clustered and longitudinal data. He is the lead author of a book comparing different statistical software packages in terms of their mixed-effects modeling procedures (Linear Mixed Models: A Practical Guide using Statistical Software, Third Edition, Chapman Hall/CRC Press, 2022), and he is a co-author of a second book entitled Applied Survey Data Analysis (with Steven Heeringa and Pat Berglund), the second edition of which was published by CRC Press in June 2017. He was elected as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association in 2022.

Among the numerous explanations that have been offered for recent errors in pre-election polls, selection bias due to non-ignorable partisan nonresponse bias, where the probability of responding to a poll is a function of the candidate preference that a poll is attempting to measure (even after conditioning on other relevant covariates used for weighting adjustments), has received relatively less focus in the academic literature. Under this type of selection mechanism, estimates of candidate preferences based on individual or aggregated polls may be subject to significant bias, even after standard weighting adjustments. Until recently, methods for measuring and adjusting for this type of non-ignorable selection bias have been unavailable. Fortunately, recent developments in the methodological literature have provided political researchers with easy-to-use measures of non-ignorable selection bias. In this study, we apply a new measure that has been developed specifically for estimated proportions to this challenging problem. We analyze data from 18 different pre-election polls: nine different telephone polls conducted in eight different states prior to the U.S. Presidential election in 2020, and nine different pre-election polls conducted either online or via telephone in Great Britain prior to the 2015 General Election. We rigorously evaluate the ability of this new measure to detect and adjust for selection bias in estimates of the proportion of likely voters that will vote for a specific candidate, using official outcomes from each election as benchmarks and alternative data sources for estimating key characteristics of the likely voter populations in each context.

The Weiser Diplomacy Center at the University of Michigan’s Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and the American Academy of Diplomacy will co-host a discussion with four former ambassadors on the global implications of the war in Ukraine. Ambassador Susan Elliott will consider the war’s implications for NATO and the future of Europe, including whether NATO’s new unity and strength will hold and what the future security architecture of Europe will look like. Ambassador Robert Cekuta will discuss implications for Central Asia and Russia’s “near abroad,” discussing how the war relates to Russia’s imperial history, what it means for the former states of the Soviet Union, and the economic and energy questions it raises. Ambassador Richard Boucher will discuss implications for Asia, including China’s position in this evolving world and how the war in Ukraine will change China’s calculus for Taiwan. Ambassador Ronald Neumann will moderate the panel and provide a perspective on implications for the Middle East.

This event will be live streamed.

Explainability Is Not the Solution to Structural Challenges to AI in Medicine

Explainability is often treated as a necessary condition for ethical applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in Medicine. In this brief talk I survey some of the structural challenges facing the development and deployment of effective AI systems in health care to illustrate some of the limitations to explainability in addressing these challenges. This talk builds on prior work (London 2019, 2022) to illustrate how ambitions for AI in health care likely require significant changes to key aspects of health systems.

On the Inextricability of Explainability from Ethics: Explainable AI does not Ethical AI Make

Explainability is embedded into a plethora of legal, professional, and regulatory guidelines as it is often presumed that an ethical use of AI will require explainable algorithms. There is considerable controversy, however, as to whether post hoc explanations are computationally reliable, their value for decision-making, and the relational implications of their use in shared decision-making. This talk will explore the literature across these domains and argue that while post hoc explainability may be a reasonable technical goal, it should not be offered status as a moral standard by which AI use is judged to be ‘ethical.’

As a dual-trained periodontist and microbial ecologist, I use my clinical skills and training in ‘-omics’ research to investigate the myriad ways in which the human microbiome can be harnessed to promote health. I firmly believe that oral health and systemic diseases are intricately connected, and that global health can only be achieved when physicians and dentists collaborate to identify at-risk individuals and deliver integrated care.

Navigating a Post-Roe America: Insights, lessons, and reflections after a decade leading in the reproductive justice movement (October 20, 2022 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/96937 96937-21793585@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, October 20, 2022 4:00pm

Organized By: Institute for Research on Women and Gender

**THIS EVENT WILL NOW ONLY BE PRESENTED ON ZOOM WEBINAR**

In the wake of the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Americans everywhere are strategizing and mobilizing to protest and challenge the abolishment of the right to abortion care. These actions are necessary and important, though it is often forgotten that even when Roe was in place, abortion care for many women still was not adequate.

This talk will examine the realities of reproductive health care for women before the end of Roe, where we are now, in the post-Roe era, and what strategies we need to employ going forward in anticipation of the erosion of even more rights.

About the speaker:
Yamani Yansá Hernandez has been working at the vanguard of the sexual and reproduc­tive health, rights, and justice movements for the last decade. From 2011-2015, she was the Executive Director of the Illinois Caucus for Adolescent Health (ICAH), a reproductive justice organization focusing on adolescent sexual health, rights, and identities. Most re­cently, Ms. Hernandez was the first Black Executive Director of the National Network of Abortion Funds (NNAF), overseeing the membership, technical assistance, and advocacy for over 80 grassroots organizations that fund abortion and build the cultural and politi­cal power to ensure that the legal right to abortion remains a reality. Under her leader­ship, the staff increased from 12 to 60; the budget grew from $2 million to $20 million; and the organization cultivated an approach to their work based on an ethos of justice and care. Ms. Hernandez holds a B.S. from Cornell University and an M. Arch. from the University of Washington, and is currently writing a memoir.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Barger Leadership Institute

On Thursday, October 20, the BLI is hosting an in person screening of The Color of Care, followed by a conversation where we will discuss the film and talk about how we can mobilize to combat racism in healthcare with community leaders from New Detroit (Rebecca Irby), Packard Health (Oryanna Diem), and the School of Public Health (Becky Woolf).

The Color of Care chronicles how people of color suffer from systemically substandard healthcare. COVID-19 exposed what they have long understood and lived: they do not receive the same level of care. Produced by Ms. Winfrey’s Harpo Productions and directed by Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning director Yance Ford, the film traces the origins of racial health disparities to practices that began during slavery and continue today. Using moving personal testimony, expert interviews, and disturbing data, the film reveals the impact of racism on health, serving as an urgent warning of what must be done to save lives.

Representative Rashida Tlaib is an American politician and lawyer serving as the U.S. representative for Michigan’s 13th congressional district since 2019. The district includes the western half of Detroit, along with several of its western suburbs and much of the Downriver area. A member of the Democratic Party, Tlaib represented the 6th and 12th districts of the Michigan House of Representatives before her election to Congress. After serving, she worked at Sugar Law Center, a Detroit nonprofit that provides free legal representation for workers. In Congress, Tlaib is tackling one of the most significant drivers of poverty in our country – medical debt. With eight million Americans pushed into poverty due to medical expenses in 2018, Tlaib introduced The Consumer Protection for Medical Debt Collections Act (H.R. 2537), which would prohibit the collection of medical debt for two years, as well as debt from “medically necessary” procedures being included on one’s credit report. It passed the House in 2021 as part of a Comprehensive Debt Collection Act.

The talks, which are free and open to the public, will also be livestreamed on YouTube. U-M students can participate in the series as a one-credit course - look for it as SWK 503 section 001.

The Annual Purple Run is an exciting collaboration between the University of Michigan Police Department, Ann Arbor Police Department, the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office, and SafeHouse Center to bring our community together while highlighting the prevalence of Domestic Violence. In Washtenaw County, law enforcement and advocates work very closely with one another and, whether it is on active cases or community events, we are actively engaged in protecting and safe-guarding the public.

The Purple Run is much more than a fundraiser. Our goal is to raise awareness about Domestic Violence and to help the community recognize this issue affects all of us. There is strength in numbers, and we are so excited that you want to join us and make a statement to survivors that there is support in our community.

Every 60 seconds, 20 people are subject to intimate partner violence.


Let’s work together to bring this number down!

We’re running domestic violence out of town.

Panelists: Richard F. Doner, Goodrich C. White Professor Emeritus of Political Science, Emory University; Jessica Gottlieb, associate professor of public affairs, University of Houston; Adrienne LeBas, associate professor of government, American University; Erin Metz McDonell, Notre Dame du Lac and Kellogg Associate Professor of Sociology, University of Notre Dame. Moderator: Dan Slater, WCED Director, U-M.

How can countries best escape both dictatorship and poverty? This roundtable considers whether it is still either possible or desirable for emerging democracies to build the kind of powerful states that have alternatively fostered development and hindered prosperity in the postcolonial world.

Richard F. Doner is Goodrich C. White Professor (Emeritus) in the Department of Political Science at Emory University. Dr. Doner's research focuses on the political and institutional bases of economic development, especially in Southeast Asia. His books include *The Politics of Uneven Development: Thailand’s Economic Growth in Comparative Perspective* (2009); *From Silicon Valley to Singapore: Location and Competitive Advantage in the Hard Disk Drive Industry* (with David McKendrick and Stephan Haggard, 2000); and *Driving a Bargain: Japanese Firms and Automobile Industrialization in Southeast Asia* (1991). Dr. Doner has written or consulted for the World Bank, the International Labor Organization, the Inter-American Development Bank, and business associations in Southeast Asia. He was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Northeast Thailand and an assembly line worker at General Motors in California.

Jessica Gottlieb is an Associate Professor at the University of Houston’s Hobby School of Public Affairs and holds a PhD in Political Science and MA in Economics from Stanford University. She is a board member of the Evidence in Governance and Politics (EGAP) network (2019 - ) and Data Coordinator for the Democratic Erosion Consortium. Her research focuses on the political economy of development, investigating constraints to government accountability and state capacity in new democracies with some newer work on partisan polarization in the US. This work has been published in the *American Political Science Review, American Journal of Political Science,* and *World Politics,* among others.

Adrienne LeBas is an Associate Professor of Government at American University. Prior to joining AU, LeBas was a Prize Research Fellow at Nuffield College, University of Oxford, and Assistant Professor of Political Science and African Studies at Michigan State University.

Speaker:

Kadija Ferryman, PhD
Assistant Professor
Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health

In this talk, Professor Ferryman will discuss the merits and challenges of conducting health equity reviews of artificial intelligence (AI) tools used in health and medicine. The talk will examine how interdisciplinary approaches from the social sciences, bioethics and humanities, and computational fields can be involved in the development of concepts, methods, frameworks, and guidelines for understanding and governing digital health tools.

Dr. Kadija Ferryman is a cultural anthropologist who studies the social, cultural, and ethical implications of health information technologies. Specifically, her research examines how genomics, digital medical records, artificial intelligence, and other technologies impact racial disparities in health. As a Postdoctoral Scholar at the Data & Society Research Institute in New York, she led the Fairness in Precision Medicine research study, which examines the potential for bias and discrimination in predictive precision medicine.

She earned a BA in Anthropology from Yale University, and a PhD in Anthropology from The New School for Social Research. Before completing her PhD, she was a policy researcher at the Urban Institute where she studied how housing and neighborhoods impact well-being, specifically the effects of public housing redevelopment on children, families, and older adults.

Organized By: Veteran and Military Services

In 2021, with the withdrawal of U.S. and allied forces, the Afghanistan capital Kabul fell. Anger and confusion reigns across America mixed with relief that the twenty-year war is over. Iraq, a fragile democracy remains but the rationale for invasion remains in question. Almost fifty years before, Saigon fell after the last American forces pulled out of Vietnam. How do Afghanistan and Iraq Veterans feel about their sacrifice and service today compared to how Vietnam Vets now feel about theirs? What, in fact, does winning a modern war look like? This panel will be one of the first in the nation to ask this urgently important question.

Please join us to learn about the University of Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science.

The Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science (MPSDS) offers graduate degrees that combine ideas and techniques for producing and analyzing data about humans and our society. Join us to launch your career in this exciting and rewarding field in which scientists interpret the world through data.

MPSDS
The University of Michigan Program in Survey Methodology was established in 2001 seeking to train future generations of survey and data scientists. In 2021, we changed our name to the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science. Our curriculum is concerned with a broad set of data sources including survey data, but also including social media posts, sensor data, and administrative records, as well as analytic methods for working with these new data sources. And we bring to data science a focus on data quality — which is not at the center of traditional data science. The new name speaks to what we teach and work on at the intersection of social research and data. The program offers doctorate and master of science degrees and a certificate through the University of Michigan. The program's home is the Institute for Social Research, the world's largest academically-based social science research institute.

Location: Michigan Union
Organized By: Weiser Diplomacy Center

Leaders from North America and Europe will explore approaches to industrial heartland economic renewal in order to address one of the root causes of the polarizing politics undermining Western democracies and the transatlantic alliance.

Industrial regions—historically their countries’ economic powerhouses during the 20th century and the foundation for the middle class on both sides of the Atlantic—have undergone significant economic restructuring over the past several decades, leading to fractured communities and the rise of populist politics. This event will be a working discussion with leaders, managers and experts on community and economic development from North America, the UK and Europe, exchanging insights and ideas around advancing place-focused economic development policies and approaches. The event is one of a number of transatlantic learning exchanges being conducted as part of the Transforming Industrial Heartlands Initiative—a partnership of governments and leading policy organizations in North America and Europe.

Attendees may join in person or via zoom.

Location: North Campus Research Complex Building 18
Organized By: Automotive Futures

We've been following the development of Chinese auto industry since the early 2000s, and this period seems to be the most challenging for companies doing business in China because of the uncertainty in the geopolitical relationship between the China and the West. Automotive companies like all business wants as much certainty in how local and national governments will treat foreign investment in their country, but today there is probably less certainty than at any time in the past 20 years.
To better understand how automotive companies are managing this uncertainty, this year’s conference will focus on auto companies that are currently working in China, both domestic and foreign, as well as experts on China that can provide an informed perspective on what they see happening now and in the near future. We will also discuss China’s energy sector support for the New Energy Vehicle (NEV) program, and the quality, reliability, and appeal of vehicles, including Chinese manufacturer export strategies.

Some of the questions we will address will include: Are the Chinese non-joint venture brands becoming more successful than the joint ventures? How far along are the Chinese in developing and selling electric vehicles? How is the government changing its auto policies to support NEVs? What new NEV companies are selling in the Chinese market? How has the pandemic affected manufacturers and suppliers? How is the energy sector supporting NEVs in charging stations and power plants? How successful will Chinese OEMs be in exporting their vehicles globally?

A standard approach for targeting population subgroups in household surveys is to sample general population and then to screen for eligible households. This becomes increasingly costly as the subgroup accounts for a small proportion of the population, which is the case for the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). HRS is a population-based longitudinal study of adults ages 50 and older in the U.S. and maintains its representativeness by adding a new age cohort every 6 years. In 2016, HRS targeted those born between 1960 and 1965 with an additional goal of oversampling racial/ethnic minorities. This group is less than 10% of the population. In order to increase the efficiency of screening, HRS had traditionally used probability proportionate size sampling in its area-probability sample with the age-eligible population size as a measure of size as well as stratification based on the race/ethnicity distribution of area sampling units. For 2016, HRS sampling additionally used stratification at the address level by enhancing the population of addresses in the sample areas with commercial data. This study examines the utility of commercial data for increasing efficiency with a focus on its availability and accuracy by analyzing a dataset that combines sampling frame data, screening data, main survey data as well as external data from the American Community Survey.

MPSDS
The University of Michigan Program in Survey Methodology was established in 2001 seeking to train future generations of survey and data scientists. In 2021, we changed our name to the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science. Our curriculum is concerned with a broad set of data sources including survey data, but also including social media posts, sensor data, and administrative records, as well as analytic methods for working with these new data sources. And we bring to data science a focus on data quality — which is not at the center of traditional data science. The new name speaks to what we teach and work on at the intersection of social research and data. The program offers doctorate and master of science degrees and a certificate through the University of Michigan. The program's home is the Institute for Social Research, the world's largest academically-based social science research institute.

SISRT
The Annual Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques
The mission of the Summer Institute is to provide rigorous and high quality graduate training in all phases of survey research. The program teaches state-of-the-art practice and theory in the design, implementation, and analysis of surveys. The Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques has presented courses on the sample survey since the summer of 1948, and has offered such courses every summer since. Graduate-level courses through the Program in Survey and Data Science are offered from June 5 through July 28 and available to enroll in as a Summer Scholar.

The Summer Institute uses the sample survey as the basic instrument for the scientific measurement of human activity. It presents sample survey methods in courses designed to meet the educational needs of those specializing in social and behavioral research such as professionals in business, public health, natural resources, law, medicine, nursing, social work, and many other domains of study.

The Coming Interjurisdictional Abortion Wars (November 16, 2022 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/101157 101157-21800886@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, November 16, 2022 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine (CBSSM)

This talk will examine the paradigm shift that is occurring now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade. Returning abortion law to the states will spawn perplexing legal conflicts across state borders and between states and the federal government. This talk emphasizes how these issues intersect with innovations in the delivery of abortion, which can now occur entirely online and transcend state boundaries. Judges and scholars, and most recently the Supreme Court, have long claimed that abortion law will become simpler if Roe is overturned. But in reality, overturning Roe will create a novel world of complex, interjurisdictional legal conflicts over abortion. Some states will pass laws creating civil or criminal liability for out-of-state abortion travel while others will pass laws insulating their providers from out-of-state prosecutions. The federal government will also intervene, attempting to use federal laws to preempt state bans and federal land to shelter abortion services. Ultimately, once the constitutional protection for pre-viability abortion disappears, the impending battles over abortion access will transport the half-century war over Roe into a new arena, one that will make abortion jurisprudence more complex than ever before. This talk will offer insights into this fast-approaching transformation of abortion rights, law, and access, looking ahead to creative strategies to promote abortion access in a country without a constitutional abortion right.

Lead in the water: What are the educational impacts on Flint students? (November 30, 2022 4:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/101259 101259-21801118@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, November 30, 2022 4:30pm
Location: Weill Hall (Ford School)
Organized By: Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy

In early 2016, the Flint Water Crisis captured national attention - major news outlets reported that the city’s tap water had been contaminated with lead since April of 2014. Given the well-documented detrimental effects of lead exposure in early childhood on cognitive development, many worried that the academic progress of Flint's youngest residents may have been impacted. Over the past few years, important data has become available, allowing researchers to rigorously study and measure effects of the lead water crisis on children in Flint.

Earlier this year, the University of Michigan’s Education Policy Initiative (EPI) produced a working report that linked household water pipe data to educational outcomes. Join the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and EPI on November 30 to hear key findings on the academic impacts of the Flint Water Crisis 7-8 years later, followed by a conversation to discuss the big picture implications for young people in the community. Facilitated by Ford School Professor Brian Jacob, the conversation features Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha - recognized as one of USA Today’s Women of the Century for her role in uncovering the Flint water crisis and leading recovery effort - alongside Dr. Sam Trejo, Assistant Professor of Sociology at Princeton University and Flint Community Schools Superintendent Kevelin Jones.

Free and open to the public.

Please join us virtually from 7:00-8:30 PM on Wednesday, November 30.

Michigan's new approach to redistricting by an independent citizens commission has now come full circle, from signature gathering for the statewide ballot initiative in 2018, to strong statewide support in that fall's election, creation of the Michigan Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission, their work drawing new districts with extraordinary input from Michigan citizens, and now the new districts being used for the first time in the 2022 elections.

Join us for a final webinar in our redistricting series, to look back at this consequential change in state policy and to review how this new approach played out this fall, including its impacts on races and election outcomes, and how it compares to experiences in other states. We'll hear from an expert panel covering these and related issues, including their reactions to audience questions.

Moderator:
Matt Grossmann, Director, Institute for Public Policy and Social Research and Professor of Political Science at Michigan State University.

"A Double-Edged Sword”: Genetic Data Sharing and Implications for the Learning Health System

Thursday, December 1, 2022

12:00 pm - 1:30 pm ET

Great Lakes Room, Palmer Commons, 4th floor

In contrast to the laborious and expensive process of generating genetic datasets de novo, academic genetic researchers are increasingly using large and inexpensive “secondary” research datasets held by government, consortia, and industry for their work. Choosing between different kinds of data providers is about more than just convenience, however, it can also have important implications for the kind of science advanced and to which communities it will generalize. This talk will explore the factors driving researchers to select certain datasets for their work as well as their experiences sharing to, as well as using, shared data resources. As researchers wait for the new National Institutes of Health’s “Policy for Data Management and Sharing” to go into effect in January 2023, this talk will explore who ultimately carries the burden of increasing data sharing requirements

Firearm Safety: A Comprehensive Approach (December 8, 2022 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/101813 101813-21802377@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, December 8, 2022 12:00pm

Firearms recently surpassed motor vehicles as the leading cause of death for kids and teens in the U.S., and were involved in a record 45,000 deaths nationwide in 2020. The current toll hearkens back to the days of rising automobile crash deaths, which spurred a national effort to use injury prevention science to make changes that cut automobile deaths in half — not by taking cars off the road, but rather by making our roads and their drivers safer.

Today, experts from the U-M Institute for Firearm Injury Prevention are using the same strategy to understand and address firearm injuries and deaths. Through research, and partnerships with community leaders, they seek to make communities safer. Many are also front-line health care providers who have treated people with firearm injuries or risk factors for firearm violence or self-harm.

In this Well Aware, several of U-M’s top experts will discuss how we can best address this national crisis. Please submit questions for the Q&A session when you RSVP.

CGIS offers First Steps sessions virtually (via Zoom) every Monday and Thursday from 4:00pm to 4:30pm during the academic year while classes are in session, with the exception of holidays.

First Step sessions are a great opportunity to learn more about the application process prior to meeting with an advisor. You can learn about all of our programs around the world, scholarships and other financial aid resources, the CGIS application process, and more!

*Attending a First Step session is no longer a required component of the CGIS application process.*
