This semester I'm teaching demographic methods to sociology grad students and having a whale of a time. Here are the materials if people are interested (will be updated throughout the semester): github.com/MJAlexander/...
This one might be of interest to demographers! On Wednesday Amy Mann will talk about her work (w/ me and @mathewkiang.com) on metrics for measuring the quality of cause of death data. We find huge variation in quality across the US.
The next Formal Demography Working Group is Thursday September 11 at 10am ET! @phbocquier.bsky.social will present on identifying small-area diffusion of mortality transitions using non-linear modelling. Sign up details on our website! formaldemography.github.io/working_group/
