معرفی
Dr. Andreas Hoehn is a Research Fellow at the University of Glasgow's MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Sciences Unit since June 2022. He is an active member of the System Science in Public Health Programme and the SIPHER Consortium. Additionally, he holds affiliations with the ERC-funded MigrantLife Research Group at the University of St. Andrews and the SUDA Demography Unit at the University of Stockholm.
He earned his PhD in Health Sciences from the University of Southern Denmark and the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, completed in March 2020. Prior to his current role, he worked at the University of Edinburgh's Diabetes Medical Informatics and Epidemiology Research Group.
Research Interests: His work focuses on demographic processes, quantitative methods (including advanced models like life table decomposition and Markov-chain multistate analysis), health and mortality inequalities, working life trajectory disparities, synthetic populations, and reproducible/open science practices. He actively explores solutions to stagnating population health improvements in high-income countries like the UK, challenges of population ageing on social security systems, and barriers to migrant integration.
Publications Trends: His articles consistently emphasize health inequality analysis, systems science applications, and diabetes-related outcomes. Recent work investigates the cost-of-living crisis impact on public health strategies, policy evaluation (e.g., 20-minute neighbourhoods), and synthetic population dataset development for Scotland's health policy frameworks. He frequently collaborates with interdisciplinary teams and policymakers to translate research into actionable insights.
Awards: No scientific awards explicitly mentioned.
Advising & Grants: He currently advises two students: Ilana Booth (gendered health/wealth inequalities) and Rachel Hamilton (early learning impacts on child health disparities). His recent grant (2024) from Research Data Scotland focuses on linking synthetic population datasets with administrative records to improve health policy through data integration.
Labs/Teams: Core contributor to the SIPHER Consortium developing synthetic population tools for Great Britain's healthcare planning, and collaborates with the MigrantLife Research Group (University of St. Andrews) on migration demographics. He also maintains ties with the SUDA Demography Unit in Stockholm.
