Welcome to INEQKILL, where we tackle the issue of ‘ultimate inequality’—disparities in death! We explore the evolution of all-cause and cause-specific mortality inequalities in Belgium from 1800 to 2025. Join us on this exciting journey! www.ineqkill.be
A new study by Janna Dinneweth and Sylvie Gadeyne reveals the complex links between air pollution, socioeconomic factors & neurological disease mortality in Belgium.
Population density is key for dementia.
