Jie Hua (华 杰)
Welcome to my personal academic homepage!
I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Demography at the School of Population and Health, Renmin University of China, under the supervision of Professor Ting Li. My research focuses on marriage and family, and I am committed to extending computational methods to classic demographic topics, particularly integrating multi-source data. I am also interested in public health, including simulating population health and exploring social stratification in health communication.
I'm visiting the Knowledge Lab at UChicago until August 2025.
