Congratulations to our PhD student Catalina Torres for successfully defending her thesis
Congratulations to our Catalina Torres for successfully defending her PhD with thesis entitled "Life expectancy in urbanizing contexts: patterns and causes of changes in mortality in historical populations". Catalina looked at mortality transitions in the Northern Europe. She did substantial work not only in writing the papers, but also constructing openly accessible databases of historical data.
Picture is Catalina’s own graphic summary of possible causes of mortality decline in the past.
