Double participation of @lifelongmove.bsky.social members in a session of the @sllshome.bsky.social conference 2025. Talks dealt with residential trajectories since early life and socio-economic and health outcomes in adulthood. Thank you to participants for useful tips to improve our research.

💫Very happy to share that my first single-authored paper has been published in @sfjournal.bsky.social. I suggest to combine Life Course Feature Selection with Ñopo decomposition to disentangle which life-course events drive gender inequalities such as Gender Pension Gaps doi.org/10.1093/sf/s... 🧵👇

Excellent conference and powerful session on housing precarity organized by @lifecoursecentre.bsky.social. Homelessness, gender inequalities, and homeownership dynamics. I am grateful for the insights and discussion!
