We all know migration in Puerto Rico is at an all-time high… Puerto Rican sisters, brothers, nieces, and nephews are emigrating to other places in the world. But how is this affecting those who are being left behind? Let the research lead the way 🧵 /1

In #PuertoRicanAgingMatters: @TropicalEPID & colleagues' recent study highlights how older adults in Puerto Rico are experiencing smaller family networks due to migration. This shift may impact caregiving and support systems.

In #JGSSAdvAccess: Migration reshapes kinship structures among 🇵🇷's older adults. A 65 y/o in 2021 has, on average, 5.6 close biological family members, down from 6.7 in 2000. Notably, there's an ⬆️ of transnational living kin. @OUPMedicine @geronsociety doi.org/10.1093/geronb…

What an experience! This course gave me tools I never thought I could use to model kinship within my research area. Thanks to @MPIDRnews for the opportunity, and thanks to @AppDemography and @AVerdery for the support. Pd: also, made a bunch of new friends and coauthors. 👍🏼🫶🏼
