to
digital demography
As an independent empirical researcher, the main goal of my study is to understand how social relations are responsible for producing health capacity and functional stability during the second half of the life course. I use a combination of theoretical approaches and visualization of some statistical methods specially developed as Stata and R-code for my research question.

About
Multidisciplinary intergenerational researcher & digital demographer
I’ve had a passion for science, research, and innovations since I was a child, and my intensive studying and working experience paid off in 2013 when I graduated with a Master of Arts in Social Sciences (Sociology and Gender Studies). I enjoy following the results of my research into Computational Social Science & implementing new methods of data visualization. Learn more:

Data Movement
Social structures &
the transformative power of innovations
In an effort to gain a better understanding of institutional family demography, I have recently begun to use sequence analysis (as a predictive and explanatory tool to achieve more insight into how our personal histories structure our present) to investigate the organization and functionality of the diverse parts of my model. I am currently looking to expand this work by collaborating with new public health institutions & mathematical political economists who have the facilities and prior experience to investigate the future of intergenerational health.
Data Mining & Machine Learning
Why data science & statistics?
We still have only a limited understanding of Data Mining & Machine Learning. Answering questions about this is essential for understanding the transhumanistic role & sociological (but also biological and ecological) conditions it plays on the scientific processes, and for developing tools to further explore this research avenue with more sensitive measurements and improved data collection.
The Visibility Tool
3D descriptions and predictions
Building upon work done by my colleagues at the Department of Sociology, through the big influence of Intergenerationality, the University of Göttingen & Applied Statistics, and Open Source/ Open Access Movement, I have constellated a powerful tool for use in the visual identification and characterization of the aging processes for different subpopulations. A major advantage of this visibility tool is its improved gender sensitivity by data analysis, which allows us to detect dynamic changes in response to sociological questions.
