Harvard Pop Center Social Demography Seminar – “Racial disparities in infant outcomes: Insights from, and for, formal demography”

Monica Alexander, PhD, assistant professor joint in statistical sciences and sociology, University of Toronto, will present in person “Racial disparities in infant outcomes: Insights from, and for, formal demography.” Join us at the Pop Center OR register to attend via Zoom.

The Social Demography Seminar (SDS) series at the Center for Population and Development Studies provides a lively forum for scholars from across the university to discuss in-progress social scientific and population research. Social demography includes work that uses demographic methods to describe and explain the distribution of social goods across populations. The series offers presentations on a wide variety of topics such as family, gender, race/ethnicity, population health—including mortality, morbidity, and functional health—inequality, immigration, fertility, and the institutional arrangements that shape and respond to population processes.
