Tracking Migration Amid War and Disease

Project
Using social media data to ‘nowcast’ migration around the globe

Project
How, and how much, do migrants use UK health services?
Recent arrivals to the UK use the NHS significantly less than the UK-born population, though the difference narrows when adjusted for age and self-assessed health. However, more work is needed to provide insights to policy makers on migrant use of the NHS, their health needs, and the quality of health care received.
