SUMMARY:Online Lecture 1: The epidemiological transition (rescheduled)
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer: Prof. Isabelle Devos\, Ghent University \nContent of the lecture/ workshop: This lecture combines theoretical content with active learning to help students understand the epidemiological transition theory in a global and historical context. Special emphasis is placed on assessing the quality of the cause-of-death data when examining the epidemiological transition.\n \nObjectives of the lecture/ workshop: This lecture aims to allow students to think critically about the theory\, its updates and derivatives (e.g. health transition) and potential factors driving the transition (economic development\, public health\, medical progress\, etc.). \nRequirements: It is advisable to review the articles to facilitate an informed discussion during class.  \nRecommended reading:  \n\nOmran  Abdel R.

Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences\, 65(3)\, 287–326. https://doi.org/10.1093/jhmas/jrp058\nExplore the trends in mortality for one infectious and one non-infectious disease of a European country of your choice since the early 20th century. Compare these findings with those from a country in a different European region\, and a non-western country. Possible data source: WHO mortality database (https://platform.who.int/mortality/themes/theme-details/MDB) and the cause-of-death data series of the Human Mortality database (https://www.mortality.org/Data/HCD).\n\nYou can download the presentation by prof.

SUMMARY:Online Lecture 3: Life course determinants of mortality
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer: Prof. Tommy Bengtsson\, Lund University \n\n\n\nContent of the lecture/ workshop: The lecture starts with an overview of the long-term mortality decline contrasting underlying period and cohort factors. It reviews the studies from the 1930s onwards in which synthetic cohorts based on country data have been used\, as well as later studies at regional levels\, and their limitations. It then introduces life-cycle models and biological and social mechanisms to understand health patterns and gives examples using longitudinal individual-level data. It gives examples of how shocks in food supply and disease exposure in early life lead to social and economic disadvantages later in life as well as to poor health. \n\n\n\nObjectives of the lecture/ workshop: On a general level the student will acquire knowledge about theories explaining the role of life-course factors for health and well-being. It will also introduce ways to apply causal modeling combining contextual information with longitudinal individual level data. \n\n\n\nRequirements: Active participation\, and it is advisable to review two articles to facilitate an informed discussion during class. \n\n\n\nRecommended reading:  \n\n\n\n\nBarker\, D.

SUMMARY:Thematic Workshop: Funding Oppertunities for Studying Inequality in Health
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to announce the Thematic Workshop: ‘Funding Oppertunities for Studying Inequality in Health’. This will be a dedicated workshop in which participants can brainstorm about funding opportunities tailored for our network. It will be a first opportunity to explore potential grants\, create application timelines\, and collaborate on ongoing proposal initiatives.\n  \nThis workshop will take place as a side-meeting of the AISoLA Conference\, offering an excellent opportunity for us to connect our work with broader academic discussions. We also encourage participants to contribute to the Digital Humanities track of the conference\, which holds its sessions in the afternoons. Your presentations can be included in the post-conference proceedings\, providing added visibility for our collective work. See here for more information: https://2024-isola.isola-conference.org/aisola-tracks/\n  \nFull Programme
