Objectives
Participant n°5 is going to supervise the research activity related to development of mathematical models and statistical methods for analyzing the data collecting in this project.

Workplan
The workplan of participant n°5 includes elaboration of different versions of the models and testing them using simulated data and then application of these models to real data. He will provide consultative help in elaborating probabilistic models and statistical methods appropriate for the analysis of data. He will organize local meetings and discussions of ongoing research on the project in the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research. He will coordinate activity of his group with research groups of other partners participating in the project. He will participate in writing scientific reports and research papers related to the project. He will attend the meetings of partners’ groups involved in elaboration of models. He will be involved in presentation of the research results at these meetings.

Participant n°1 will contribute to WP1, WP2, WP4, WP5 and to deliverables D1-D6, D8- D11.
