16 Apr 2025 Violence and COVID-19 drive decline in Mexico’s life expectancy An international study involving the Leverhulme Centre for Demographic Science shows that life expectancy in Mexico declined between 2015 and 2021, before beginning to return to pre-pandemic levels by 2022. The study is the first of its kind to uncover the effects of violent deaths, particularly high homicide rates, and other causes of death on life expectancy before, during, and after the pandemic.

4 Apr 2025 New tool could inform our ability to predict health and other outcomes accurately A new tool could transform how scientists assess predictive models. The InterModel Vigorish (IMV) quantifies how much better one model is than another when predicting binary outcomes. By integrating the mathematics of gambling, the model offers a simple and clear way to compare predictive performance across different fields.
