Francisco Villavicencio is a demographer, statistician and data analyst interested in the study of how population dynamics affect public health and aging. His research focuses on the development of methods to analyze incomplete demographic data, with special emphasis on mortality, causes of death and computational demography. He received his PhD in Statistics from the University of Southern Denmark in 2017. Dr. Villavicencio is currently a Juan de la Cierva Research fellow at the Centre for Demographic Studies (CED) in Barcelona. He is also a Vising researcher at the Interdisciplinary Center on Population Dynamics of the University of Southern Denmark, and Associate at the Department of International Health of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore.
