This is a paid part-time position.
This work will investigate the impact of COVID-19 on mortality among poor New Yorkers using burial records from Hart Island, the city’s potter’s field. The proposed research will provide new evidence on how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected poor New Yorkers by estimating all-cause excess mortality by sex, race/ethnicity, and location during the first and second waves of the outbreak using previously unexplored death records from Hart Island, New York City’s indigent burial ground.
Here you will practice record extraction, data assembly, variable coding and imputation, and more.
