NYU’s Social Science for Impact Forum will feature presentations from Dr. Sherry GliedDr. Ingrid Ellen, and Dr. James Kemple about three NYU-housed datasets (e.g., HEALCoreData, and SCHMA). Following the presentations, an expert panel of policymakers, researchers, and philanthropic leaders will discuss a broad vision for how these three unique data sets can be used to impact future directions in policy, practice, and science. 

The Institute of Human Development and Social Change will also announce a Summer 2020 funding opportunity for NYU-based teams who develop feasible and innovative applications that leverage the datasets to answer compelling research questions and inform viable policies to improve the lives of children, families, and communities.

Sage, the parent of Social Science Space, is a global academic publisher of books, journals, and library resources with a growing range of technologies to enable discovery, access, and engagement. Believing that research and education are critical in shaping society, 24-year-old Sara Miller McCune founded Sage in 1965. Today, we are controlled by a group of trustees charged with maintaining our independence and mission indefinitely.
