It is co-organized by the\u00a0Asociaci\u00f3n de Demograf\u00eda Hist\u00f3rica\u00a0and\u00a0HiDo network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This two-week intensive course will equip participants with the skills to collect, harmonize, and analyse historical individual mortality data, exploring the roots and drivers of health inequalities across regions and over time. Participants will gain hands-on experience with real-world datasets, learn to use R for database construction and statistical modelling, and apply coding systems such as ICD10h developed within the GREATLEAP network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through lectures, practical sessions, and collaborative work, you will engage with an interdisciplinary framework that brings together demography, history, epidemiology, sociology, economics, and political science: reflecting GREATLEAP\u2019s mission to connect expertise across disciplines and countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Course highlights<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>70 contact hours over two weeks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Database construction, data harmonization, record linkage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Statistical modelling (regression, decomposition methods, survival analysis) in R<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Application of international standards and analytical tools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Opportunities for networking and collaboration with international researchers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>More information can be found in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/greatleap.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Preliminary-programme-Summer-Training-School-Barcelona.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">preliminary programme<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who should apply<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, early-career researchers, and professionals with an interest in historical demography, public health, epidemiology, or related fields.
