2023 was a challenging year both professionally and personally. Luckily, it ends on a high note as I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll be joining @EmoryPolisci as an Assistant Professor next fall. I’m incredibly grateful to so many people and very excited for the journey ahead.

My first @PolMeth2022 experience is truly amazing! Thanks to my coauthors @haohanch and Yiqiang for all the support behind the scene. And thanks to everyone who gave us great feedback. Although I didn’t contribute much, I’m proud of our WashU team!

@ProfYangZhang As Renmin alumni, it's embarrassing that the school deliberately created for training party leaders has never ever produced any standing committee member. Not many Politburo members either.

After spending more than two months and more than $300, I finally got my Canadian visa. And it will expire on 09/30/2022, two weeks after APSA (which means I'll have to do it again in 2025). I will vote for @TomPepinsky to keep APSA accessible to all students and scholars.

The best players of coordination games must be Chinese moms 👩. They always manage to give exactly the same amount of Lucky Money (aka Red Pockets 红包/利是🧧) to other kids as their kids received from other parents. ¡Without prior communication!

Thanks to @jasonywu for inviting me for a visit @IUBloomington . Had a great time presenting my paper "Normalization of Censorship" (👇) and got great advice from IU's PoliSci and China scholars on fieldwork before flying back to China later this month.

One great benefit of being enthusiastic about sports (football ⚽️ in particular) is that you learn by heart that results more than likely don’t go your way and you still have to live with it. 😢 Very very helpful for young academics.

What a crazy game! Glad that they didn't end up throwing beer bottles at each other. We would’ve been the first casualty. Hope they all enjoyed watching me cheering for the Milan goals by myself 😂

This is bad. ICE just told students here on student visas that if their school is going online-only this fall, the students must depart the United States and cannot remain through the fall semester.

@MaryGao @FT Only anecdotal observations. There's been some censorship of nationalistic sentiments. Just as @jessicacweiss found in Powerful Patriots, CCP suppresses protests over Taiwan while allowing protests over Japan/US. But the public might be less forgiving of biding time over TW now.

Doing some casual reading of Canadian political history before traveling for APSA. So... y'all China watchers keep yelling about social credit scores... and guess what... Canada actually had a *social credit party* for quite a while 😂
