Hey demography/epi friends:
What are your favorite measures of the intensity of mortality in one group or the difference/change in mortality across multiple groups or over time?
Got any cutting-edge innovations (there are a bunch!) or forgotten favorites? I’m compiling a list. I’ve got tons but I want yours!

The demographer's dilemma:
Bc #PopStudies institutions--your #PopCenter, #PAA2023, #DemographyJournal & etc--are your core intellectual home, you want them to make a lot of space for "demographer's demography," bc if that stuff doesn't happen there, there's nowhere else in the world it will happen
&
bc #demography as a field is small, small, small, you want your institutions to have broad ownership so they're vibrant and sustainable and fun
#AreaStudies friends: same boat?
