Prof. Hung Ho, Nanyang Technological University
Title: Self-Control and Overconsumption: Empirical Evidence from Cigarette Purchases
Yuhang Pan (潘聿航)
Yuhang Pan is an applied microeconomist and a tenure-track assistant professor at the Institute for Global Health and Development at Peking University. My work lies at the intersection of environmental economics, health economics, and development economics.
He uses applied microeconomic methods to study how environmental regulation and public policy shape environmental quality, population health, and incentives in health care systems. Much of his research combines large administrative or spatial data with causal inference to understand policy design and its consequences.
Before joining Peking University, he completed his postdoctoral training at the University of Hong Kong. He received his PhD from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and his bachelor's degree from Beijing Normal University.
His research has received multiple honors, including the Third Prize of the 10th Ministry of Education Outstanding Scientific Research Achievement Award (Humanities and Social Sciences).
