Richard Cookson (a white maybe still just about middle-aged man, smart casual, mic in hand) stands in front of a screen showing several lists of team members and project collaborators. Picture is shot across part of a room and we see the back of several people's heads between us and the speaker.

Our workshop "Cross-government policy modelling of long-term health and wellbeing impacts" brought 5 #microsimulation teams together with policy makers, public sector and other researchers.

The event was part of our #UKRI #MRC funding

Image shows a picture of a hand holding a pen writing in a notebook. Text advertises job opportunity: Post-doctoral Research Fellow* to work on family and housing projections using microsimulation. This work is part of two research programmes: a) the MigrantLife project funded by the European Research Council (ERC); and 2) the ESRC Centre for Population Change & Connecting Generations (CPC-CG). The Research Fellow will use microsimulation: a) to project partnership and childbearing trajectories of migrants and their descendants in the UK (and elsewhere in Europe); and b) to investigate individuals’ and couples’ housing trajectories in the UK and to project future homeownership rates.

Collage of four pictures, top a yellowish stylised panorama depiction of some of York's sights (minster, tower, Uni York Central Hall) on a grey background; in the middle two smaller pictures showing a sticker of the head of an alien, mainly green and purple, as well as a shot up Low Petergate with old building facades and the towers of the minster; and at the bottom again a panorama showing Lendal Bridge from downstream, with some tourist Ouse ships moored.

Really happy to be in York once again for the annual in-person meeting of our grant to develop a better approach to long-term modelling of intervention effects on adolescent mental health and wellbeing:
