My research at ICPSR is developing ingest and curation workflows for new data types (including EEG) to ensure these data are Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) within data repositories.

My funded projects and programs:
National Addiction and HIV Data Archive Program (NAHDAP) funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA)
Health and Medical Care Archive funded by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF)
Archive of Data on Disability to Enhance Policy and research (ADDEP) funded by NIH

Andrea Thomer is an assistant professor of information at the University of Michigan School of Information. She conducts research in the areas of data curation, museum informatics, earth science and biodiversity informatics, information organization, and computer supported cooperative work. She is especially interested in how people use and create data and metadata; the impact of information organization on information use; issues of data provenance, reproducibility, and integration; and long-term data curation and infrastructure sustainability. She is studying a number of these issues through the “Migrating Research Data Collections” project – a recently awarded Laura Bush 21st Century Librarianship Early Career Research Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Dr. Thomer received her doctorate in Library and Information Science from the School of Information Sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana‐Champaign in 2017.
