OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Formal demographic models are useful to describe and compare populations through time and space. But these models are evolving over time, as we gain new insights from population processes. In this talk, I demonstrate how formal demographic methods help to study racial disparities in infant outcomes, and, conversely, how characteristics of racial differences in infant outcomes help to improve demographic models.
