On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
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.
