Hello, I am Castiel. Welcome to my website! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Development Economics in the School of Economics at Peking University. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Washington in 2022.


​My recent research topics concern:
1) population health & development economics (e.g., health, wellbeing, vulnerable population, human capital, urban environment and vitality, and rural revitalization), and
2) empirical industrial organization & applied microeconometrics (e.g., healthcare and pharmaceutical markets, innovation, manufacturing industry, and multi-sided platform).

​I'm  a development economist who applies analytical tools from public health and empirical industrial organization to analyze policies that promote wellbeing and human development.
