LifeSim 2

Abstract

We are refining LifeSim 1 by conducting bespoke epidemiological analysis of the Millenium Cohort Study from birth to age 17. We will then apply this model to various local and national early intervention programmes, as part of the ActEarly Programme, a childhood research and knowledge mobilisation infrastructure in Bradford and Tower Hamlets.

In future research we plan to improve and validate our model in further ways, including economic modelling of parental behaviour.
