Jungwon Eum and Amanda Prokasky, MAP Academy senior research specialists, led the second presentation of the 2024-25 Methodology Applications Series Nov. 8 at Carolyn Pope Edwards Hall.

For the past 20 years, the Nebraska Center for Research on Children, Youth, Families and Schools has worked to impact lives by conducting, supporting and sharing high-quality research in the social, behavioral and educational sciences.
And there are no plans to slow down.
A panel of researchers and community partners explored the latest programming, interventions and resources being used to promote early childhood social/emotional development across Nebraska at the Fall NAECR Networking event Oct. 31.
Panelists included Sami Bradley, Nebraska Association for Infant Mental Health, Nebraska Children and Families Foundation; Amy Colwell, Early Childhood MTSS; Holly Hatton, Child, Youth & Family Studies, University of Nebraska–Lincoln; Lisa Knoche, Nebraska Center for Research on Children, Youth, Families and Schools, UNL; and Christen Million, Nebraska Children and Families Foundation–Rooted in Relationships.
Lorey Wheeler, MAP Academy director, led the first presentation of the 2024-25 Methodology Applications Series Oct. 4 at Carolyn Pope Edwards Hall.
Video is now available of Wheeler’s presentation, “Developing a Strong Research Data Infrastructure.”
Living in Nebraska is often referred to as “the good life” by many of the state’s nearly 2 million residents. But according to a recent review of family needs across the state, that “good life” is more accessible to some than others.
An examination of local, state and national databases by University of Nebraska–Lincoln researchers underscores the need to strengthen support for families as a key step toward achieving the state’s economic goals. Their analysis found Nebraska families becoming more diverse and complex, due largely to changes in the demographic makeup of the state’s population in recent decades.
For 20 years, the Nebraska Center for Research on Children, Youth, Families and Schools has been committed to one core mission: Make a positive difference in people’s lives through research in the social, behavioral and educational sciences.
There will be a special event Nov. 19 to celebrate CYFS’ 20th anniversary and recognize the vibrant, interdisciplinary research community that has contributed to the center’s mission since its founding in 2004.
The MAP Academy’s 2024-25 Methodology Application Series: Supporting and Leveraging Robust Research Data Systems kicks off Oct. 4 with a presentation by Lorey Wheeler, MAP Academy director.
The presentation, titled “Developing a Strong Research Data Infrastructure,” will be from noon to 1:30 p.m. at Carolyn Pope Edwards Hall, Room 312.
A new funding opportunity is available to support faculty engaged in field-based human subjects research.
The MAP Academy invites interdisciplinary faculty across all campuses to submit proposals for the Applied Analytics and Data Infrastructure (AADI) Catalyst Program — an initiative to support the rigor of high-quality, field-based human research at the University of Nebraska. The program launched last fiscal year and is made possible through a grant from the Nebraska Research Initiative.
