Average mortality rates are a horrible measure of typical mortality during the first weeks of life. On the day of birth modal mortality is 189 times lower than average mortality. Read more in my recent piece on selection in neonatal mortality.

Journalists often ask for my thoughts on the contemporary US pronatalist movement. My assessment is based on my expertise and training as a social demographer, and my own research on childbearing behaviors at the individual and aggregate levels.

Strap in, b/c I've got a lot to say. 1/

Looking forward to attending the workshop on Population and Kinship dynamics, and learning about SOCSIM !

Likewise, Adile !

New @iussp.bsky.social panel on Kinship Structures, Dynamics and Inequalities, aims to "bring together researchers from demography, sociology, public health, and related fields to advance the comparative study of kinship"

Here, weird guy from X, I fixed it for you:

"If a scientific society wants to be welcoming to [...] students & researchers [from the Global South], does it make sense to hold its next annual conference in a country that's notorious for [being located in the Global South]?"

The answer is Yes.

Especially, the wonderful Reviewer No. 2 !

Toulouse Economics and Biology workshop was the cherry on the cake ! Had a fan-girl moment listening to THE Ronald Lee. Thank you , @iast.fr and @tse-fr.eu

PS: Had a very successful season of "Devi in Paris" as well 🙃

I had the most incredible opportunity to attend the Toulouse Summer School in Quantitative Social Sciences at @tse-fr.eu and learn from @lfitouchi.bsky.social , @cmolho.bsky.social & @jorgeapenas.bsky.social on the "Evolution of Human Sociality"
Toulouse was warm and welcoming, so was TSE !!

Congratulations @rahulmondal.bsky.social !!

Debating images actually sounds like a fun and exhilarating activity!

Demographers, I need help!

We're estimating excess mortality on noisy historical data. We expect substantial baseline mortality trends (secular mortality decline) that we want to account for in our baseline projection so our "excess mortality" doesn't conflate the true excess w the pre-trend.
