In a study recently published in the European Journal of Ageing, we compare cohort-specific disability trajectories in old age across subsequent birth cohorts in Europe, during the period 2004–2017. Drawing on data from the Survey of Health and Retirement in Europe (SHARE), we were able to track the accumulation of disabilities among subsequent birth cohorts of older women and men from different European regions, during the period 2004-2017.
