I am a Peking University Boya Young Fellow Associate Professor (tenured) at Center for Social Research, Guanghua School of Management. Prior to joining Peking University, I worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Princeton University. I earned my PhD in Social Science from HKUST in 2016.
My research broadly concerns social demography, social stratification and mobility, and comparative historical demography. I am especially interested in understanding how family and social context shape demographic differentials and socioeconomic inequality. My research has appeared in the American Journal of Sociology, Demography, Evolution and Human Behavior, IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, Journal of Marriage and Family, Social Science & Medicine, and Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), among other international academic journals, as well as top sociology and history journals in Chinese, such as 社会学研究, 历史研究, 人口研究 and 社会.
