Diego Alburez-Gutierrez is a Research Scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research in Rostock, Germany, with a particular interest in inter-generational dynamics and kinship processes. His current focus is on the exposure to mortality and the availability of family resources over the life-course of individuals. His work combines mathematical modeling, demographic micro-simulation, and empirical analysis to characterize historical and future variations in the experience of life events, such as parental bereavement or the onset of the ‘sandwich generation’.
