Welcome!

I’m currently a junior majoring in Economics at Peking University. I spent Fall 2024 as a visiting student at UC Berkeley and am visiting Harvard University in Spring 2025.

I work across labor, health, and public economics, using empirical methods to study how policies and institutions shape individual behavior and welfare. I’m also passionate about the economics of science, with a particular interest in how the composition of research teams influences the diffusion of scientific knowledge.

I’m always happy to connect — feel free to reach me at zxzhou21@stu.pku.edu.cn or zhuoxiang.zhou@gmail.com.
