NACDA - A Tour of Varying Data on Aging Resources

NACDA - A Tour of Varying Data on Aging Resources Online

Data can be available from a variety of sources, representing an even wider variety of populations, and available in a multitude of formats. During Love Data Week, the NACDA/data on aging archive within ICPSR will host a webinar highlighting several different datasets and the different ways researchers can access them.

This webinar will help attendees to answer the question “whose data is it, anyway?” when browsing resources from NACDA and ICPSR. NACDA is the National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging and is funded by the National Institute on Aging. For more than 40 years, NACDA has sought to support behavioral and social science research on healthy aging worldwide by making longitudinal data resources publicly available.

This webinar is free and open to the public. This webinar will be recorded and the recording will be sent to all registrants. Accessibility Accommodations: Communication Access Real-time Translation (CART) can be provided upon request; please email us at least 2 weeks prior to the event at icpsr-help@umich.edu.
