I am an Assistant Professor (with the university honorific title Boya Young Fellow) at the Center for Social Research, Guanghua School of Management, Peking University. Before joining PKU, I worked as a postdoctoral research associate at Princeton University. I received my PhD in Social Science from HKUST in 2017.
My research broadly concerns Social Demography, Social Stratification and Mobility, and Comparative Historical Demography. I am especially interested in understanding how social and family context shapes demographic differentials and socioeconomic inequality. I do so from a comparative perspective, emphasizing not just geographical comparisons – within East Asia and between East and West, but also temporal comparisons – throughout the life course, across multiple generations, and between the past and present.
My research articles have appeared in Demography, Demographic Research, Evolution and Human Behavior, IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, Social Science & Medicine, and 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, and 社会.
