My name is Stanislav Avdeev, and I am a PhD Candidate in Economics at the University of Amsterdam. I study how decisions spill over across people and institutions in higher education and healthcare. In my research, I combine large-scale administrative and survey data from the Netherlands and Norway with quasi-experimental methods. I have previously been a visiting researcher at the University of Bergen and the University of Zurich.

My academic work has been published in, among others, American Economic Journal: Applied Economics, Journal of Public Economics, and Journal of Economic Literature. My research has received funding from the European Association for International Education and the Sustainable Future Initiative, and various prizes, including best paper awards from the European Society for Population Economics Conference and the CESifo/ifo Junior Workshop on the Economics of Education.

In addition to academic work, I lead policy evaluation research at the Amsterdam Health and Technology Institute, an independent research institute focused on healthcare policy and evidence-based decision-making. I also serve as an expert reviewer for UNESCO’s Global Education Monitoring Report.
