SUMMARY:Thematic Workshop: Tuberculosis: The White Death as a Social Disease
DESCRIPTION:Background:\nTuberculosis has been a significant public health concern\, affecting millions of people worldwide throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries\, and even nowadays in certain parts of the world. It has captivated attention due to its profound impact and intriguing debates. Tuberculosis held a dominant position as the leading cause of death at various stages of life\, especially during young adulthood. Additionally\, the persistent nature of tuberculosis led to a high prevalence and burden of the disease. Unresolved discussions have centred around the key factors influencing geographical\, gender\, age\, and temporal disparities in mortality\, with a particular focus on the role of resistance (which can be affected by nutrition as well as other interfering diseases) versus exposure. These debates encompass differentials in tuberculosis mortality between men and women\, disparities in urban-rural and other geographical patterns\, and the underlying factors contributing to the decline in mortality during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. One central point of contention concerns the reasons behind higher death rates from tuberculosis among women compared to men\, and whether this disparity was attributable to inherent female susceptibility\, inadequate nutrition\, or differential exposure. A prominent viewpoint posited that the elevated tuberculosis rates among women resulted from their weaker bargaining power within households\, leading to inferior nutrition (McNay\, Humphries and Klasen 2005). The geographic patterns of tuberculosis mortality were not straightforward either. Researchers have suggested that high tuberculosis rates in rural areas could be attributed to the return migration of individuals (especially women) who had contracted the disease in urban settings (Cronje 1984; Hinde 2015). Nutrition also emerged as a factor implicated in the substantial decline of tuberculosis during the late nineteenth century (McKeown 1976). The decline in tuberculosis has traditionally been also attributed to improving living standards\, better housing\, hygiene and sanitary reforms\, and improvements in environmental conditions (among others\, Gronjé 1984; Pooley and Pooley 1984; Puranen 1991; Vögele 1988). \nDespite the severity and significant mortality associated with tuberculosis in historical populations\, the investigation of the disease’s demographic characteristics has unfortunately received relatively limited attention. Significant gaps exist in the available evidence concerning the trend of tuberculosis mortality and morbidity\, with a predominant focus on historical North-Western Europe\, specifically Britain and/or North America. This leaves a noticeable dearth of information from Eastern and Southern Europe\, but also beyond Europe (i.e.\, South America\, Asia\, and Africa)\, hindering a comprehensive understanding of the disease’s impact in these regions. \nThe workshop is organized by the IUSSP Scientific Panel on ‘Epidemics and Contagious Diseases: The Legacy of the Past’\, in collaboration with the University of Sassari\, Italy and our COST-Action GREATLEAP. \nThe workshop will be held in Alghero\, Sardinia\, 26-27 September 2024\, hosted by the Department of Economic and Business Sciences at the University of Sassari. \nFull programme  \nOrganisers:\n\nLucia Pozzi (University of Sassari\, Italy)\nMichail Raftakis (University of Bologna\, Italy)\nGabriele Ruiu (University of Sassari\, Italy)\n\nIf you have any questions regarding the workshop\, please contact lpozzi@uniss.it\, michail.raftakis@unibo.it\, and gruiu@uniss.it.

SUMMARY:Virtual Mentoring Event
DESCRIPTION:The first virtual event for future mentors and mentees of the COST Action Great Leap will take place on Monday 26 August 2024 at 15:00 CET. The goal is to give both mentors and mentees an opportunity to meet at least on-line and find out how they can help each other. We have asked a variety of senior researchers to present their expertise and invited young scholars to get in touch with their potential mentors.  \nMentors are going to give a 2-3 minute introduction to their research expertise with focus on the potential cooperation with mentees. The following mentors will attend:  \n\nNeville Calleaj – data sources for health inequality analysis\, European Health Data Space\nIsabelle Devos – epidemiological transition\, historical sources\, historical demography\nFevzi Esen – data analytics and data pre-processing\nIvan Miškulin – health inequalities\, public health\, health organizations\,  addiction\, and vaccination\nMaarten van Wijhe – quantitative methods\, epidemiology\, public health\, pandemics\nNeville Calleaj – data sources for health inequality analysis\, European Health Data Space\nNeslihan Önder Özdemir – proofreading English texts\, academic writing in medicine in English\n\nAfterwards mentees will join them in the break-out rooms. \nPleas register using the sign-up form \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://norceresearch-no.zoom.us/j/65744088340?pwd=R4rXsda2DwH1SBVzDGoQgEkbC6TpJv.1\nMeeting ID: 657 4408 8340\nPasscode: 760876

SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Launch of the Historical International Classification for Diseases (ICD10h)\nAfter working determinedly on the ICD10h coding- and classification system\, before and during the SHiP project and in the Great Leap era\, working group 2 has finished the first version of the ICD10h system and the accompanying documentation/user guide. We are happy to announce that we will officially launch the online publication of the ICD10h on July 24th at 3 pm CET . All Great Leap members and others to whom this could be of interest are invited to join the online launch. During the launch\, we will give a brief demonstration of the ICD10h and the documentation. Of course\, we will also show you where you can find all the necessary files to use the system yourself. On top of that\, the meeting will outline what else to expect from working group 2 in the future and how you can be of help\, for example by using the ICD10h to code causes of death in your own language. We are excited to share this first version and we hope that many of you will choose to celebrate this moment with us! \nZoom: https://unige.zoom.us/j/7256701704\nPassword: greatleap

SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:Summer Training School: ‘Research on health inequalities using longitudinal demographic data’\nIn Collaboration with the European Society for Historical Demography the COST-Action Great Leap organises a summer training school on ‘Research on health inequalities using longitudinal demographic data’. It equips students with theories\, sources and methods for analyzing inequalities in health. The course provides hands-on workshops in data management of longitudinal micro-level data\, event-history analysis\, and analysis of causes of death. In addition\, a large part of the summer school is devoted to a team project. \n\nApplication\nApplication deadline is 1 April 2024. Information of admittance will be sent on 30 April 2024. Grants (offered by our Action) that cover (a part of) the travel and lodging and a limited number of fee waivers are available for applicants who need financial support. \n\nCall for participants\nSee the call for participants for more information. \n↓ Call for participants \n\nContact information\nFor more information\, please contact secretary@eshd.eu.
