  • Introdution of myself:

    I received my PhD at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I have a general interest in economics and econometrics. I am currently working on the econometrics of social interactions and social networks, which is about the identification and estimation of social effects in within and across social groups. The theories have applications in students’ behaviors and academic achievements in schools, imperfectly competitive markets, spillover effects across regions and countries, and financial networks.

    Besides the above topics, I am interested in the econometrics and statistics of causality, treatment effects, model selections, panel data, and big data.
