Welcome back to day two of the #HMDsymposium2025! We’re starting with session IV on ✨global trends✨, featuring presentations by pgerland.bsky.social, @brunomasquelier.bsky.social, Isaac Sasson, @jiaxinshi.bsky.social, and Jim Oeppen. Chair: Domantas Jasilionis

#HMDsymposium2025 Day 1 ☑️ Thanks to all who made the first day a success 👏 — full of great talks, posters, and discussions. See you tomorrow!

We’re wrapping up the first day of the #HMDsymposium2025 with the ✨poster session✨ with, featuring contributions from @svitoslava.bsky.social, Timothy Adair, Ina Alliger, @josecas91.bsky.social, Özer Bakar, Agnieszka Fihel, Tatiana Sitchinava, @tothgcsaba.bsky.social, and Chiara Micheletti.

Hot take: "Flattening the curve" successfully lowered overall life expectancy deficits since 2020, but also prolonged the period of excess deaths compared to countries with massive mortality shocks in 2020/2021. That's a public health communication challenge.

Session III examines why #survival progress is slowing or reversing in the UK and US, with presentations by David Leon, Jesús-Daniel Zazueta-Borboa, @polizzan.bsky.social, and Al Klein, led by France Meslé. #HMDsymposium2025 #Lifespan #LifeExpectancy #Mortality
