Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Research Interests
I studied agriculture in college, and later in overseas agricultural service, I learned that if science is to change human life, political, social and economic conditions need to be changed together. Therefore, I switched to social sciences, interested in environmental science and society. As an asthma patient, my research focuses on air quality governance, climate change health, and the fairness of air pollution and environmental policies.
