Our paper on the recent decline in unintended births (UIB) is finally out in JHR! We find that UIBs fell 22% between 2007 & 2019, driven by less sex and more IUD use among those likely to have a UIB. W/ @luciegschmidt.bsky.social @mguldi.bsky.social

Hi friends who study fertility! Excited to share that I'm part of a team that received NSF funding to create a US Human Fertility Database.

We'll be generating state-specific (since 1959) and county-specific (since 1982) period and cohort fertility indicators that will be easy to access.

Be a mentor at SEA this November! Mentoring is IMO the most rewarding service (way better than refree reports). docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I am co-organizing several Presidential sessions for the Southern Economic Association meeting Nov 23-25, 2024 in Washington DC. Maternal & Infant Health, economics of the family, health, labor. Interested? e-mail or DM me for more information.

Some systems show this information, but I’m assuming some don’t since I’ve been in your shoes. If you don’t have time, politely decline. (And suggest another reviewer if you think of one.)

Sorry. This should work: sites.google.com/view/economi...

Submissions due Friday!
The Economic Demography Workshop will take place in-person from 1-6 pm EST on Wednesday April 17, 2024 (day the PAA starts). See the EDW website (sites.google.com/view/economi...) for details on submission.

Our findings highlight that the loss of *hospital* care has meaningful, yet heterogenous, effects on rural populations and that investigating rural counties in the aggregate may miss important differences that depend on degree of rurality.
