The 11th edition of the Summer Institute on Ageing will focus on The Value of Longitudinal Data to Study Ageing. The Institute provides students and early-career researchers with a multidisciplinary and rigorous understanding of the ageing process, ranging from some basic notions of the medical and epidemiological literature to key concepts in the economics and sociology of ageing.
A special focus is on the use of large micro-data sets from the international family of health and retirement studies (SHARE, HRS, ELSA, CHARLS, MHAS, etc.).
This edition of the Summer Institute will include two types of activities:
- A three-day summer school on “Multidisciplinary perspectives in the study of ageing based on longitudinal surveys” with lectures, testimonials and hands-on sessions.
(June 3-5)
- A two-day workshop on “Genetics and biomarkers in the study of ageing” with presentations and discussions of scientific papers from leading experts in the fields.
(June 6-7)
Suitable for: Graduates, PhD students and post-doc scholars in economics, statistics, social sciences and medicine, but also professionals active in the field of ageing.
The Program will admit a maximum of 30 participants. The minimum number is 12.
25 fee-waiver scholarships are available in 2024
