Call for Abstracts Ninth ATHEA Conference for Health Economics “Equality in Times of Economic Slowdown” Vienna, February 26th and 27th 2026 Across Europe and beyond, fiscal pressures are compelling difficult choices in health care. This year’s conference theme explores how equality and fair access can be safeguarded despite prolonged budget constraints. What principles, evidence and policy approaches can guide the allocation of scarce resources without exacerbating inequalities in, for example, waiting times, coverage or out-of-pocket spending? We will host a thematic stream on equity under such adverse conditions and are pleased to announce our invited keynote speaker: Sarah Thomson (WHO/Europe, Barcelona Office for Health Systems Financing). In addition, a policy workshop will be hosted by Stefan Eichwalder (Austrian Ministry of Labour, Social Affairs, Health, Care and Consumer Protection). As in previous years, submissions are welcome from all areas of health economics and health policy, including long-term care, and need not be limited to the conference theme. Empirical, theoretical and policy-oriented contributions from Austria and neighboring countries are particularly encouraged. Deadline abstract submission (max. 500 words): December 19th, 2025 via the <https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/N1T0YsQ4PQ> ATHEA Conference Abstract Submission Portal Notification of acceptance: January 30th, 2026 Conference venue: Institute for Advanced Studies (IHS), Josefstädter Straße 39, 1080 Vienna, Austria Conference languages: English, German Conference fee: 115 Euro ___________________________________________ Austrian Health Economics Association (ATHEA) Josefstädter Straße 39 ● 1080 Wien web: <http://www.athea.at/> www.athea.at ● e-mail: <mailto:athea@athea.at> athea(a)athea.at

Einladung zur Impulskonferenz 2025 - Konsolidierung im Bundesstaat
by Michael Getzner 17 Oct '25

17 Oct '25

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren! Sowohl Bund, Länder als auch Gemeinden haben einen beachtlichen Konsolidierungsbedarf zu bewältigen. Doch trifft dies wirklich alle gleichermaßen? Im Rahmen der Impulskonferenz 2025 wollen wir der Frage nachgehen, wie eine erfolgreiche und abgestimmte Konsolidierung im Bundesstaat aussieht – und ob bzw. wie sie gelingen kann. Auch soll das Potenzial von Einsparungen bei ausgewählten Maßnahmen eingeschätzt werden, wie etwa durch Infrastrukturabstimmung und -rückbau, Reformen bei Transfers zwischen den Ebenen, durch Reduktion freiwilliger Leistungen. Aber auch die Erschließung neuer sozial-ökologisch effektiver und gerechter Einnahmen wird behandelt. Wir laden Sie sehr herzlich zur Teilnahme an der Veranstaltung ein. *Impulskonferenz: Konsolidierung im Bundesstaat - Können wir uns Konsolidierung leisten? Zwischen Muss und Machbarkeit* *Termin: 05.11.2025, 13:00 – 17:30 Uhr* *Ort: TUtheSky der TU Wien (Getreidemarkt 9, 1060 Wien) und online* ** *Anmeldung* Wir ersuchen Sie um Ihre Anmeldung. Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos. *_Zur Anmeldung>> <https://eur04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kdz.e…>_* Das Programm entnehmen Sie bitte dem Anhang/dem Link.

Research Seminar Invitation: AI, Digital Platforms, and the Information Ecosystem
by Daniela Geppert 13 Oct '25

13 Oct '25

Research Seminar Invitation Topic:/AI, Digital Platforms, and the Information Ecosystem/ Date:Wednesday, October 22, 2025 Time:15:00 – 16:30 Location:Lecture Hall 6 (HS6) We develop a tractable model to study how AI and digital platforms impact the information ecosystem. News producers—who create truthful or untruthful content that becomes a public good or bad—earn revenue from consumer visits through ads and data collection. Consumers search for information and differ in their ability to distinguish truthful from untruthful information and reliable or unreliable sources of information. AI and digital platforms influence the ecosystem through four main channels: improving the efficiency in processing and transmission of information, endangering the producer business model by reducing visits, changing the relative cost of misinformation, and altering the ability of consumers to screen information from dis-information. Even though these new technologies improve the efficiency of processing and transmission, in the absence of adequate regulation (e.g. concerning accountability, content moderation, and intellectual property protection) the quality of the information ecosystem may decline, both because the equilibrium quantity of truthful information declines and the share of misinformation increases; and polarization may intensify. While some of these problems are already evident with digital platforms, AI may have distinctively different, and overall more adverse, impacts. All interested participants are warmly invited to join the seminar and engage in an insightful discussion.

reminder: WIC Colloquium 15 Oct 2025: Alessio Fornasin - The circadian rhythm of births and his connections with meteorological factors

<https://www.oeaw.ac.at/fileadmin/subsites/Institute/VID/ICAL-files/Colloqui um/WIC_Colloquium_15.10.2025_Alessio_Fornasin_-_The_circadian_rhythm_of_birt hs_and.ics> Wednesday, 15 October 2025 11:30 - 12:30 (CEST) Location: Meeting Room 4, 4th floor, PSK, Georg Coch Platz 2, 1010 Vienna. Please register <https://www.oeaw.ac.at/vid/events/wic-colloquium/wic-colloquium-registratio n> here. The circadian rhythm of births and his connections with meteorological factors Alessio Fornasin, University of Udine Abstract: The aim of the presentation is to evaluate the influences exerted by temperature on the circadian rhythm of births. In the past, births occurred mainly between midnight and dawn, while today births tend to be less frequent during the night hours. Today, almost all births are hospitalised and, therefore, they may adapt to the organizational requirements of the health care structures and staff. This research regards births in Udine, a city in north-eastern Italy, recorded at the beginning of the 19th century. The data on births come from the French civil register. Weather data are from very detailed data collection with three daily inputs. From the statistical point of view, we apply methods developed for circular data. The results confirm that the circadian rhythm of births is influenced by temperature. About the presenter: Alessio Fornasin is Professor of Demography at the University of Udine. He published extensively on historical demography and economic history and has participated in numerous national and international research projects. In recent years, his works have addressed the influence of the environment on demographic behavior in the past, the history of the family in the first half of the twentieth century, and the demographic aspects of the First World War. He is a former President of the Italian Society of Historical Demography (SIDeS).

Abstract In Italy, as in the rest of Europe, the stagnant dynamics of productivity represent a structural constraint, often overlooked in the formulation of public policies. Since the determinants of productivity are cross-cuIing - from innovation to the quality of institutions - it is necessary to adopt an integrated approach, overcoming the fragmentation between areas of intervention. To reverse the trend, a joint effort is needed at the national and European level, oriented towards the long term and supported by empirical evidence. Host em. o. Univ. Prof. Dr. Christoph Badelt, Chairman of the Austrian Productivity Board Date Tuesday, 14 October 2025 | 16:00 - 17:00 CEST Venue The event is planned online via Webex. Webex-Link https://oenb.webex.com/oenb/j.php?MTID=mc633d5a8a5f706a8a76a8d61435f69f4 Conference language English We look forward to having you join us at the Seminar. Please feel free to share this invitation with colleagues or others who might be interested. If applicable, we would also appreciate it if you could inform colleagues involved in the work of your national productivity board. Yours sincerely, Austrian Productivity Board If you do have any questions or want to notify us of any address changes, please contact: E-Mail: office(a)produktivitaetsrat.at<mailto:office@produktivitaetsrat.at> Imprint<https://www.produktivitaetsrat.at/en/service/imprint.html> | Data Protection<https://www.produktivitaetsrat.at/en/service/data-protection.html>
