My name is Stanislav Avdeev, and I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the University of Amsterdam. My research examines discrimination and diversity in higher education and healthcare using large-scale administrative and survey data from the Netherlands and Norway combined with quasi-experimental methods.

My work has been published in leading academic journals, including the American Economic Journal: Applied Economics and the Journal of Public Economics. I have received research funding from the European Association for International Education and the Sustainable Future Initiative, and my work has been recognised with best paper awards at the European Society for Population Economics Conference and the CESifo/ifo Junior Workshop on the Economics of Education.

In addition to academic work, I conduct policy research at the Amsterdam Health and Technology Institute, where I analyse health disparities and evaluate the impact of healthcare policies in the Netherlands. I also serve as an expert reviewer for UNESCO’s Global Education Monitoring Report.
