Biography
Quincy Thomas Stewart will soon join the faculty as an Associate Professor of Sociology and a Faculty Fellow in the Institute for Policy Research at Northwestern University. He is interested in the dynamic processes that create inequalities in socioeconomic status, health and mortality. Stewart has published on quantitative methods for studying inequality, the estimation of mortality, and on racial and ethnic disparities in socioeconomic status, health and mortality.
His current work includes: 1) analyzing racial inequality using agent-based models, 2) examining the role of disease prevalence in mortality outcomes, and 3) analyzing racial disparities in attitudes, socioeconomic status and health outcomes.
Professor Stewart completed his undergraduate training (B.S) in Interdisciplinary Studies at Norfolk State University (1996).
