Today our team members @mksicabaraban.bsky.social and @tarnhold.bsky.social successfully presented the first results from the #CHIAS project at #PopHet23. 👏

Julia Almeida Calazans analyses the diversity in the mortality profile in 21 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, exploring how differences between and within countries can affect the overall diversity of the region. The most post-presentation-coffee-break discussions ! Way to go !

Insightful presentation by @mksicabaraban.bsky.social on widowhood and cognitive functioning of older adults in Europe at #PopHet23. Looking forward to further findings as part of our @chiasproject.bsky.social together with PIs @webervienna.bsky.social & @valeriabordone.bsky.social

Great talk by with @CosmoStrozza's on ‘Lifespan Inequalities and Mortality Risk across Social Determinants of Health.’ His research delves into accurately identifying high-risk individuals using a scoring system amid various social determinants of health.

Grateful for the opportunity to share research findings with @kleystef.bsky.social at #PopHet23

Inspiring keynote by @ridhikashyap.bsky.social as always ! More than food for thought, a proposal that revolutionizes the field of Demography.
