Kanghong | Applied Mathematics and Statistics

I conducted data analysis in a quantitative research project that focused on community influences on female mutilation in Africa.

Shuohao | Applied Mathematics

I collected data, wrote R codes, and conducted statistical analysis for a research project that examined mutual funds’ risk taking behavior under low interest rate monetary policy. We found that mutual fund managers tend to actively take more risk to maximize returns when low interest rate policy is introduced.

Joo Eun | Computer Science

I collected data and performed data analysis in a public finance research project.

Regina | Economics and Mathematics

I collected data and performed data analysis in a study that examined inter-generational income mobility and inequality in the US, China, and India.

Abigail | Mathematics

I performed data analysis and data visualization for a project that examined presidential approval ratings in response to international-crisis policies; cases studies of secret alliances; and evolution of discourse in negotiations over time.

Josh | Mathematics

I collected data and performed data analysis in a study focusing on genetic etiology and childhood psychiatric disorders.

Eukyung | Quantitative Sciences

I performed data analysis and data visualization for a meta-analysis on the topic of emotional memory. The project was motivated by intellectual interests, and the findings are not yet finalized. The project examined effects of different valence of emotions on memory.

Ryan | Quantitative Sciences

I assisted with gathering and cleaning data. We investigated the effects of fatal police shootings on civilian trust and engagement. To do this we investigated 311 phone calls in different cities across the US. [project ongoing]
