Biography
I joined the University of St Andrews as a postdoctoral research fellow in 2024. My research interests include population migration, urban and regional development, and family demography. I am currently focusing on intergenerational geographic proximity in both the United Kingdom and China. My work primarily employs quantitative methods, including spatial and econometric analysis. I completed my PhD in Geography and Resource Management at The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2024.
