VI. Short Bio
Yuqing Zheng conducts research in the areas of price analysis, trade impact on labor, and quantitative methods.  He got his Ph.D. degree with a minor in Statistics in August 2006 from Auburn University under the direction of professor Henry W. Kinnucan.  He worked as adjunct professor and full-time instructor in the business school (AACSB accredited) at Auburn University-Montgomery  when finishing his Ph.D. study.  Since then, he accepted a research associate III position with the Cornell Commodity Promotion Research Program in the Department of Applied Economics and Management at Cornell University.  His recent work focuses on the the distributional impact of generic advertising in imperfect competition.  Yuqing was from Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, a beautiful city that served as one of the seven ancient capitals for China.  Yuqing's career objective is professor.  Yuqing is happily married to Fei Ye, a graduate student of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell.
