Revealing the drivers of future risk through multi-disciplinary research

We develop and share risk research on population health to assess the future of healthcare and the impact on mortality.

Combining perspectives from behavioural psychology, emergent technology and data science provides a window to real insights that benefit us all.

The Crucible

Exploring international drivers to population risks. The Crucible provides unique perspectives on how population risks will develop globally in the future, blending research and insights across four domains.

Healthcare today

Healthcare across the world faces existential challenges: escalating demands against constrained resources, increasing co-morbidities and crises in public health.

Behavioural science

Behavioural biases affect our every step and decision. The question is whether the right nudges can promote healthy behaviours effectively and efficiently.

Power of data

New partnerships over data will drive transparency and enable individuals to unlock value and insights for better medical and financial health.

Emergent technology

Every aspect of our daily lives will be transformed by technology, from sensors and robotics to nanotechnology and machine learning.

Horizon

A monthly scan of medical, social and demographic developments across countries: how populations age, get ill and get cared for.

Each issue collects what moved that month, with a short note on why it matters for mortality and longevity. Free by email; the archive stays open on the site.
