Project management As an experienced team supervisor, I have successfully led teams of 2 to 10 individuals for academic and for-profit projects. I have been responsible for setting deadlines, managing workloads, and organizing meetings using efficient communication tools such as MatterMost, SharePoint, and Zoom. My strong project supervision and management skills have ensured timely and successful delivery of project outcomes, such as by winning the best paper as the supervisor of the group in LSE GROUP 2023. Experimental Design As an experienced researcher and experimental designer, I have conducted multiple randomized controlled trials (RCTs) using a variety of research tools, including Gorilla, Qualtrics (JavaScript), and PsychToolKit. I have also recruited participants through various channels, including in-person and online using platforms like Prolific and university participant pools. Throughout the entire experimental process, I have been dedicated to ensuring accuracy and reliability in the results obtained, including the management of experimental design, implementation, and data analysis. As a result, I have developed a deep understanding of experimental methodology and statistical analysis, and have the ability to effectively communicate the results to academic and lay audiences. Statistical Analysis & Programming I have expertise in conducting advanced regression analysis (e.g., LASSO logistic), instrumental variable design and discontinuity design, and mediation or moderation analysis. I am also well-versed in mainstream statistical software such as SPSS and STATA, and training machine learning algorithms such as Extreme Gradient Boosting and Perceptron using Python。 Oral Communication Having attended and presented my own research in several revenues facing both lay audiences to field experts, I possess strong oral communication skills. Using tools such as PowerPoint slides and posters, I have been able to clearly articulate complex information in a way that is easy to understand for diverse audiences. With my understanding the popular culture, I have also been able to effectively engage and entertain my audiences while ensuring a thorough deliverance of my research topic (e.g., LSE Science Slam 2023).
