Biography
Andrew Bell is Senior Lecturer in Quantitative Social Sciences at the Sheffield Methods Institute in the School of Education, University of Sheffield. His research spans a diverse range of subject areas: his work includes a focus on health inequalities, for example looking at mental health trajectories from a life-course perspective, but he has also contributed to other disciplines including geography, political science, and economics. His work is united by a methodological interest in the development and application of multilevel models, with a focus on age-period-cohort analysis and fixed and random effects models. He is currently working on an ESRC-funded project developing the use of multilevel models for uncovering intersectional inequalities, particularly in health outcomes. Before moving to Sheffield in 2015, Andy was a lecturer at the University of Bristol, where he also completed his undergraduate degree (in Geography) and PhD (in Advanced Quantitative Methods).
