An early-career scholar with a Ph.D. in Gerontology from Renmin University of China, specializing in the interdisciplinary study of population ageing, family sociology, and social policy. My research critically examines how digital technology, evolving family support systems, and formal care arrangements shape later-life well-being in China and East Asia. I am deeply committed to advancing scholarly understanding and policy solutions for successful and healthy ageing, digital inclusion, intergenerational relations, and comprehensive care for older adults.
