Hey Emily! I'm a PhD candidate researching Chinese policymaking and modern authoritarianism. You can find me over on Google Scholar:

On socials, I share free academic resources, so I'd really appreciate being added to the science🧪feed!

Bad timing for this question... I've been in a horrible reading slump since summer. Barely been able to read anything, aside from work-related stuff.
