This session is intended to describe the many uses of applied demography and show how demographers can play an important role as data analysts in many organizations. The session will consist of a panel of three CPS demographers who have had decades of experience in working on applied data problems and issues. Each will present their own experience and provide examples of some of the applications they have worked on. There will also be a question period following the three presentations.
