👋 Greetings from Brisbane!
Our #mortality research team is here at #IPC2025, exchanging ideas and research insights with great colleagues from around the world.
🙌 Very proud to be part of the global #PopulationStudies community! #poptwitter
Feeling happy and proud, that my PhD thesis “Gender Inequality in the Italian Academy: A Life-Course Perspective on Careers and Fertility” has received an honorary mention for the @SIStatistica Award for Best PhD Dissertation in Demography! Big thanks @agnevitali for support ❤️
Lieber @Karl_Lauterbach, bei uns im Keller ist noch Platz an der Platte 🏓 #TischtennisGate
Wie haben eine eigene Tischtennisliga im Haus – und spannende Forschung zu #Gesundheit, #Lebenserwartung & Co.
Schläger liegt bereit, herzliche Einladung nach Wiesbaden vom @bib_bund!
📊 Frauen unterschätzen ihre #Lebenserwartung, Männer überschätzen sie – das zeigt eine neue #BiB-Studie.
Besonders problematisch: Wer sich "zu früh sterben sieht", denkt oft nicht ausreichend an die #Altersvorsorge.

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people.
Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.

The numbers are in: In 2024, @TheOceanCleanup removed 11,740,000 kg of trash—a 78% year-over-year increase.
A big thank-you to everyone who helped make this happen!
Now, let’s double this in 2025!

Why panic about birthrates is overblown: “US women born in 1976 had on average 2.2 children by the time they turned 45. That figure is slightly higher than that of women born in 1959 (2.0). Fertility decline may be less dramatic than many people think” https://t.co/Xp1uaDurbX
