About Me

Yujuan Gao

Postdoctoral Research Associate

I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at The Kohl Centre, Virginia Tech . I received my Ph.D. in Food and Resource Economics from the University of Florida.

My research focuses on development economics, health economics, and economics of education, with an emphasis on causal inference, impact evaluation, and applied econometrics.

My work uses field experiments, administrative data, and social network analysis to examine how digital technology, information interventions, and education policies influence development outcomes across the life cycle.
