The University of Wisconsin System was awarded a $464,110 research grant by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The grant, which runs from September 2024 to May 2029, will support a study on "Generational Overlap: Changing Demography, Shared Lifetimes, and Family Resources." The research aims to provide new information about the prevalence, duration, and life course implications of shared lifetimes between grandparents, parents, and grandchildren in the U.S. and Denmark. The findings will have important implications for understanding the intergenerational transmission of inequality and potential resource demands on governments and families.
