About Me


Hello! Here is Chen FANG (Charlie, 房晨).

I am a Ph.D. student majoring in Applied Economics at Tsinghua University, advised by Prof. Jing Cao.

I am curious and passionate about public policy and global economic governance, especially climate change, sustainable development, and resilience. I hope to work for an international organization such as the World Bank or Resources for the Future to conduct valuable research.


A question motivates my research is:

How can economists use economic and statistical tools to assess welfare changes during the green transition, particularly for vulnerable groups?


If you are interested in any aspect of me, I would love to chat and collaborate, please email me at:
