2021 saw NEW RECORD drops of life expectancy but also BOUNCE-BACKS from the losses of 2020. Life exp. is a measure of current population health and declines as mortality increases. Upcoming work with Ilya Kashnitsky — bsky @ikashnitsky.phd @jm_aburto Ridhi Kashyap Maxi S. Kniffka #poptwitter #epitwitter

Higher vaccination quota in fall is associated with smaller life expectancy deficit in 2021 across countries. This is true for ages 60+ and ages <60. Confounded, yes, but unsurprising as well. Upcoming work with massive input from Maxi S. Kniffka (COVerAGE-DB) and Human Mortality Database data.

Very happy about the opportunity to present my work on stillbirth in Germany with Natalie Nitsche, Roland Rau, and Mine Kühn at my first ever #PAA2022

📢 New paper out 📢 With Nicole Hiekel @nhiekel.bsky.social we study mental health inequalities during the first lockdown in Germany. We found that partnered mothers emerge as a new vulnerable group. Check out the paper here: doi.org/10.1177/002214…

Exciting first meet and greet today with our new students of the cohort of 2022! We are very much looking forward to working with you all: Welcome to PHDS and good luck with your studies!

Finally! Our paper on 2021 life expectancy in 29 countries is finally out in Nature Human Behaviour.

Maxi S. Kniffka and I summarized the results of our study on life expectancy since Covid-19 in this research briefing. Crucially: „Without the timely work by Human Mortality Database this paper would have taken another year to write.“ nature.com/articles/s4156…

My second PAA comes to and end. It was just so nice to visit this conference again and talk to so many amazing people about my research. #PAA2023

We are very pleased to have the students with us for the 4th PHDS Graduate Workshop today and tomorrow, and look forward to their research updates and collegial exchanges!

Ahh, the thrill of including last minute results into a presentation due in 2 hours Leverhulme Centre for Demographic Science. And thank you Maxi S. Kniffka who works with me on this analysis.

Happy to share my new publication Deutsches Ärzteblatt on rising trends in stillbirth rates in Germany.

Proud to be PhD supervisor of Maxi S. Kniffka whose work on increasing stillbirth rates is read in the German ministry of health Bundesgesundheitsministerium. See also her recent publication aerzteblatt.de/archiv/232756/…. Investigations into reasons are ongoing.
