Prospective students and/or research assistants should have a strong quantitative background and be interested in questions related to the economics of the environment, energy and/or natural resources. See the research page for a list of current areas of research. Interested students should contact Cynthia Lin. Please include a resume/CV, transcripts, and a statement of research interests.
I am currently working with the following talented, conscientious and motivated students, who enjoy tackling challenges and who seek to understand and make a positive difference in the world. They are the recipients of numerous awards and fellowships.
