About
I am Professor of Economics in the Department of Economics at the University of Southampton and Head of the School of Economic, Social and Political Sciences.
My research interests are mainly in labour economics, particularly on topics related to migration, rural-to-urban mobility in China, well-being and mental health, social networks, discrimination, crime and economic history.
I serve as Associate Editor of the Journal of Population Economics and as one of the Research Directors of the Global Labor Organization. I collaborate as a Researcher within the ESRC Centre for Population Change and I am a co-investigator of the ESRC Connecting Generation.
More details about my research, projects, publications and other activities can be found in my personal webpage.
