I am a master’s student in Economics at the Department of Economics, Wuhan University. My research interests lie at the intersection of development economics and urban economics.
My work currently pursues two interconnected agendas: the determinants and consequences of technology adoption, and the impacts of climate adaptation.
If you are interested in any aspect of my work, please feel free to get in touch.
