Welcome to my website! I am an applied microeconomist and health economist with broad research interests in human behavior, well-being, and health. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Southern California in 2018, an M.A. in Economics from Tsinghua University in 2012, and a B.A. in Finance from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2009. 

Since 2014, my work has appeared in peer-reviewed journals, including Journal of Health Economics, Health Economics, Social Science & Medicine, Demography, Economics & Human Biology, Journal of Comparative Economics, and Economic Development and Cultural Change. 

I welcome prospective Ph.D. students interested in these areas to get in touch at mingming.ma@xjtlu.edu.cn.
