ECPR and Cambridge University Press welcome Roula Nezi to the PDY editorial team, as co-editor Michelangelo Vercesi steps down.

Roula is Senior Lecturer in Political Science at the University of Surrey and a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. Her research examines developments in public opinion and political attitudes, political parties and party systems, and electoral behaviour. She is also interested in survey methodology and quantitative methods. Her academic work has been published in a wide range of Q1 journals.

Roula was an elected Trustee of the UK Political Studies Association (PSA) and Diverse Voices Programme Lead in the PSA Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Working Group. She is also a member of the Steering Committee for the ECPR Standing Group on Public Opinion and Voting Behaviour in a Comparative Perspective and was a co-convenor of the Greek Public Opinion and Parties Group.

In 2020, Roula was awarded the Political Science Association Innovation in Quantitative Methods Teaching Prize and won the Early Career Teacher of the Year award (FASS).

In her own words

Roula Nezi

I am delighted to join the Political Data Yearbook as Editor and to have the opportunity to build on its remarkable record of comparative electoral research across decades. I look forward to contributing to this tradition and to exploring how the Yearbook can continue to evolve in its coverage, its accessibility, and its value to the broader scholarly community.

ECPR extends its gratitude to departing co-editor Michelangelo Vercesi for his enthusiasm and commitment over the past four years.
