SUMMARY:Désiré Kédagni
DESCRIPTION:Faculty Fellow Désiré Kédagni will present as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2023-2024 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nDr. Kedagni’s interests span a broad range of topics with an important focus on microeconometrics (identification issues: theory and applications)\, causal inference\, policy evaluation\, and development economics. A distinctive feature of his recent econometric work is that it is motivated and tailored to answer specific real-world empirical questions. He has been collaborating with non-econometricians in order to make use of the newly-developed econometric methods to help answer their relevant research questions. His main applications are in the fields of labor economics and economics of education. His recent research has been published in Biometrika\, Journal of Econometrics\, The Econometrics Journal\, Journal of Applied Econometrics and European Economic Review.

SUMMARY:Molly Rosenberg: Cash transfers to promote healthy aging in low-income settings: Triangulating evidence from rural South Africa
DESCRIPTION:Molly Rosenberg (Indiana) will present “Cash transfers to promote healthy aging in low-income settings: Triangulating evidence from rural South Africa” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2023-2024 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nDr. Rosenberg is an epidemiologist and population health researcher who studies how social\, structural\, and economic factors influence health across the lifecourse. In her primary research line\, Dr. Rosenberg examines how poverty alleviation interventions can influence health\, and represents vulnerable populations in low-resource settings across the globe. Representative projects examine the impact of cash transfers on cognitive aging in rural South Africa (NIA R01AG069128\, MPIs: Rosenberg and Kobayashi)\, the potential for microfinance to be used to promote natural disaster resilience in Haiti\, and the association between an income generation program and healthcare utilization in Kenya. Trained as an infectious disease epidemiologist\, Dr. Rosenberg also maintains research lines in the epidemiology of HIV and SARS-CoV-2.

SUMMARY:Jason M Fletcher: Early Life Context and Old Age Mortality: Extending Barker
DESCRIPTION:Jason M Fletcher will present “Early Life Context and Old Age Mortality: Extending Barker” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2023-2024 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nA specialist in health economics\, economics of education\, social genomics\, and child and adolescent health policy\, Professor Fletcher focuses his research on examining social network effects on adolescent education and health outcomes\, combining genetics and social science research\, estimating long-term consequences of childhood mental illness\, and examining how in utero and early life conditions affect later life health\, cognition\, and mortality. He is an affiliate of the Center for Demography and Ecology\, Institute for Research on Poverty\, and Center for Demography on Health and Aging at the University and a Research Associate with the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) and Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) and member of the Human Capital and Economic Opportunity Group at the University of Chicago. \nHe earned a B.S. in economics and public administration from the University of Tennessee–Knoxville (Summa Cum Laude) and his M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in Applied Economics. From 2010-2012\, he was a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Health & Society Scholar at Columbia University. In 2012 he was selected for a career development award by the William T. Grant Foundation. That award is funding a study of the interplay between genetics and social settings in youth development. \nProfessor Fletcher’s recent articles have appeared in the Review of Economics and Statistics\, The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences\, Journal of Policy Analysis and Management\, Journal of Health Economics\, and Demography. His book (with Dalton Conley)—The Genome Factor: What the Social Genomics Revolution Reveals About Ourselves\, Our History and Our Future—was published by Princeton University Press.
