CARONTE workshop on advances in causes of death modelling

July 8 – 9, 2024 [Department of Statistical Sciences, University of Padova]

This workshop features also contributions by project "The pre-Covid-19 stall in life expectancy in Italy: looking for explanations". Preliminary results will be presented by the different units, increasing the occasions of collaborations and discussions with other experts in the field. The workshop will feature also two invited talks by Monica Alexander and Alberto Roverato on topics of direct interest for the projects.
