Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
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.
