Welcome!. I'm Di FENG (to save your time, you may simply call me D). I obtianed my Ph.D. in Economics from HEC Lausanne, where I was fortunate to be advised by my doktormutter, Prof. Bettina Klaus.

Currently, I am an Assistant Professor in the Finance Department at Dongbei University of Finance and Economics (DUFE). Prior to it, I served as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (formerly known as the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute) in Berkeley, under the mentorship of Prof. Zsuzsanna Jankó and Prof. Irene Lo.

I am also a Junior Research Fellow at Research Institute for Economics and Business Administration, Kobe University.

Research Interests. I am interested in anything related to Microeconomics Theory.

• Topics that I have been looking at recently include: Market Design, Financial Economics, and Experimental Economics .
• Topics that I may be looking at in the future include: Education Policy, Public Economics, and Information Design .

• I am delighted to announce that my PhD thesis has been selected by the HEC Lausanne to receive the Prix 2023 de Faculté.
• I am thrilled to announce that my paper has received the Best Student Paper Prize at the 18th European Meeting on Game Theory.
• I am pleased to announce that my job market paper has been awarded the Kanematsu Prize by the Research Institute for Economics and Business Administration at Kobe University.
• I will be presenting at the following conferences/workshops.
  1. 27th World Congress of the Game Theory Society (GAMES), Beijing, China
  2. 2024 Conference on Mechanism and Institution Design, Budapest, Hungary
  3. 17th meeting of the Society for Social Choice and Welfare (SSCW), Paris, France
