The latest research study by a Ph.D. student (Salvador Ramallo) and Professors from University of Murcia, Spain (Máximo Camacho, Manuel Ruiz Marín) and New York University (Maurizio Porfiri) that proposed a new dynamic factor model to accurately predict homicides with firearms in the United States, has been covered by a number of media outlets:
