  abstract = {{M}igration of participants in demographic and epidemiological studies results in missing data. {O}ne approach to reduce resulting losses in statistical power and potential biases is to follow up migrants at their new residence. {W}e describe the follow-up of migrants who were eligible for participation in a trial of a new questionnaire to measure adult mortality in {N}iakhar, {S}enegal. {W}e conducted a short inquiry in the migrant's last known household to obtain contact information and then attempted to contact and interview 661 migrants who resided in {D}akar, {M}bour, and rural areas close to {N}iakhar. {A}bout two-thirds of migrants were successfully enrolled in the study. {H}aving a contact phone number and knowing the name of the head of compound at destination increased the likelihood of successful enrollment. {F}ollowing up migrants in demographic studies is feasible in low- and middle-income countries, including long-term migrants who have not been contacted for extended periods of time.},
