SOCR Team
Health Analytics Collaboratory (HAC)
The SoN Health Analytics Collaboratory (HAC) is one of several SoN Research Intensive Entities (RIEs). HAC serves as an open incubator for collaboration and digital scholarship that emphasizes team-based transdisciplinary data science and advanced health analytics. A core mission of HAC is to foster integration of innovative research, development, education and training, and outreach in data and health sciences.
Michigan Institute for Data Science
The Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS) catalyzes data science at the University of Michigan through support for faculty, research, education and training, and industry engagement. MIDAS offers grant support, collaboration opportunities, graduate data science certificate training, online MOOCs, data science seminars, and other transdisciplinary activities.
Neuroscience Graduate Program (NGP)
The UM Neuroscience Graduate Program was established in 1971 and is one of the oldest continuously run grad neuroscience program in the nation. NGP includes 70+ grad students and 150+ trans-collegiate faculty performing research across the breadth of the neuroscience field. There are many opportunities to engage with program faculty, students and scholars.
