After all these exciting poster presentations we are delighted to announce the winner of this year’s #latefert Poster Award! 🎉🏆
@agnevitali
Congratulations to the winner(s) on this well-deserved recognition! 👏🏼

Rolf Granholm closes our last session at the #latefert WIC Conference 2024. He shows a microsimulation model in the Netherlands that explores the role of Medically Assisted Reproduction (MAR) on fertility levels, considering the complexity of the reproductive life course.

Karel Neels presents how the delay in first births impacts second and higher-order births, highlighting potential further fertility declines in Europe. #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

Beyond socioeconomic factors, regional proximity plays a key role in varying late fertility trends in Europe, @ingridsetz and colleagues find contagion diffusion processes have contributed to the spread of late births across the continent. #latefert

Enjoy the Coffee Break and make sure to grab some publications! ☕️ See you soon for Session 7 on ‘Delayed Childbearing and the future of fertility’ of the #latefert WIC Conference 2024! Stay tuned for insightful discussions! ✨

@ale_minello and colleagues close Session 6 with a talk on ‘The body well-being and fertility trade-off. How childbirth experience affects fertility trajectories.’ #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

Now we have the last two flash talks for today at the #latefert Wittgenstein Centre conference 2024! 👏🏼

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

@alice_goisis and her colleagues talk about ‘Having a live birth through Medically Assisted Reproduction: a socially stratified perspective.’ #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

Denise Musni and @SchnorC show that income and availability of parental support compensate for the lack of a co-parent among single mothers who conceived via MAR in Belgium. #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

@MartaSeiz gives insights in her research on the impact of late childbearing on perinatal health in Spain. She shows that higher education mitigates risks like preterm birth for women 35-44, but doesn't shield against stillbirth or extreme prematurity. #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

In her research, @MCCompans studied varying age-based regulations for assisted reproduction across 27 high-income countries. She shows that the impact of MAR on very late births is determined by contextual factors other than regulations. #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

Our last keynote at #latefert, @LucyvandeWiel talks about the increasing relevance of fertility preservation and egg freezing. She highlights changing norms, opportunities and new financial pressures in her fascinating presentation. ❄️

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

So many great presentations today at the #latefert WIC Conference 2024! Now enjoy your lunch break and see you soon for our last keynote by @LucyvandeWiel on ‘Delayed Reproduction: Frozen eggs and (il)liquid capital’. 🥗🧃

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

@SchnorC and @rees_alice show that in Belgium, lifetime childlessness is linked to different partnership trajectories, which are also associated to socioeconomic factors. #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

Valdes (@mvaldes1989) and colleagues talk about the educational gradient on the timing of the transition to the first child and its variations across provinces in Spain. Interestingly, differences are driven by variations among the non-university-educated. #latefert

@WiCVienna @ViennaYearbook @mwinkdwo Impressions from the “Meet the Editors” of @ViennaYearbook coffee break at #latefert Conference in Vienna

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

@melindacmills and colleagues analyze the relationship between early-life diseases and lifetime childlessness in Finland & Sweden. They find strong associations with behavioral disorders, congenital anomalies and endocrine–nutritional–metabolic disorders. #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

@PassetWittig and Nadja Milewski examine the quantity and complexity of reproductive barriers and its interrelation with live births. They find that women in the oldest age group have the highest average quantity and complexity of adverse reproductive events. #latefert

[Wittgenstein Centre @WiCVienna]

Join us in your coffee break, grab a coffee and meet some of the editors of the @ViennaYearbook: Miguel Sanchez Romero, @PaoDiG, Maria Winkler-Dworak (@mwinkdwo) and Tomáš Sobotka! Find more info on the Vienna Yearbook here: https://t.co/vXf1UQ15K1. #latefert #ViennaYearbook ☕️👋🏼
