Haley McAvay is an Associate Professor of Sociology at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) within the Department of Sociology, based in room OLD.M2.09. Her research focuses on social inequalities impacting migrants and their descendants in European societies, utilizing quantitative methods to analyze migration, race/ethnicity, and spatial dynamics. Her expertise spans inequality between native and immigrant-origin populations, ethnoracial classification and identity, residential segregation, neighborhood effects, political behavior, and citizenship. She employs survey and census data with emphasis on longitudinal analysis to examine how spatial contexts shape socioeconomic and political outcomes, particularly in French contexts where she investigates discrimination discrepancies and structural barriers to integration. Recent publications (2018-2024) reveal consistent thematic focus across American Sociological Review, Journal of Politics, and Demography, with recurring examination of neighborhood effects on voter registration, citizenship trajectories, and ethnoracial segregation patterns. Her methodological approach emphasizes quantitative rigor in analyzing large-scale datasets to uncover trends in immigrant spatial incorporation and political disenfranchisement. McAvay teaches Advanced Social Theory and Advanced Social Research Methods while supervising MSc Dissertations in the MSc in Inequalities and Social Science program. She actively seeks PhD candidates interested in migration and inequality, ethnoracial discrimination, and residential segregation research, providing methodological guidance in quantitative analysis of spatial and longitudinal data.

Evelyn Mercado serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Her research examines how close relationships influence mental health outcomes in ethnic minority populations, with specialized focus on Latin American families and the impact of stressors like discrimination on parent-adolescent dynamics. Education PhD in Psychology, University of California (2016) Research Focus Dr. Mercado employs biopsychosocial frameworks to investigate interpersonal emotion dynamics—including shared physiology and affect—as protective or risk factors for psychological adjustment. Her methodology integrates naturalistic approaches (daily diary studies) with experimental designs, utilizing self-report, observational, and psychophysiological measures such as cortisol assessment. Current work emphasizes how exposure to discrimination impacts youth adjustment through relational pathways. Publication Trends Her 15 most recent publications (2019-2025) demonstrate consistent thematic focus on discrimination physiology, family mental health during crises (notably the COVID-19 pandemic), and parent-adolescent stress transmission. Key methodologies include dyadic physiological monitoring and longitudinal assessments, with emerging international collaborations on nutrition-related health disparities in Uganda—though these appear peripheral to her core biopsychosocial research program.
