Applications are open for the Indigenous DataSET Fellowship!

Shape the future of Indigenous Data Sovereignty in Arizona as an Indigenous DataSET Fellow. A new fellowship program led by UArizona’s Stephanie Russo Carroll is seeking 15 early career researchers (post-doc through assistant professor level) in any fields of study from public universities and tribal colleges across Arizona to join our inaugural cohort of Indigenous DataSET Fellows for the 2023-24 academic year. 

Each semester, a new cohort featuring up to six Data Science Fellows will be offered. Fellows are expected to attend and participate in twice weekly virtual training activities. Fall 2023 semester participants will be awarded a $7,000 stipend for successful completion of the program.

Christine Bime, MD, an associate professor in the Division of Pulmonary, Allergy, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine at the UArizona College of Medicine – Tucson’s Department of Medicine, is committed to making an impact globally, particularly in resource-challenged areas of the world, by building collaborations starting in Tucson.

Choosing to work in the murmur of a busy coffee shop rather than in an office with library-level silence might be healthier, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Arizona and University of Kansas.

The study finds – perhaps unsurprisingly – that loud noises at the office have a negative impact on employee well-being. But the study also suggests that complete silence is not conducive to a healthy workplace.
