Asylum-related migration is complex and volatile. Still, it can be forecast effectively! Our new #openaccess article on Nature @SciReports with @iacus & @teddy_wilkin introduces a novel #datadriven approach to forecasting social processes. A🧵1/6

Our colleagues @ashiratamar & @BrunoMasquelier conducted an analysis of #rural-#urban gaps in #mortality in 53 low- and middle-income countries & they could find a decreasing urban advantage in adult mortality with age.
