Research Interests
Legislative studies
Constitutional foundations, legislative design, and the institutional mechanisms through which legal rules shape social outcomes.
LLM-based social simulation
Generative agents and interacting social subsystems for studying heterogeneous behavior and complex social dynamics.
Legislation & policy evaluation
Reproducible policy experiments, real-world data, and statistical validation to compare scenarios and improve proposed interventions.
Selected Research
GPLab: A Generative Agent-Based Framework for Policy Simulation and Evaluation
Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation · 29(1), Article 6 · 2026
Contribution: A general-purpose framework connecting LLM-driven social agents, modular social subsystems, and an iterative simulation–evaluation loop to support policy scenario comparison and refinement.

Research Approach & Skills
I combine data-driven empirical analysis with programming and the application of large language models to social science. My experience in interdisciplinary research, platform development, and team collaboration supports sustained research output and the development of major research proposals.
