Junting Duan
Ph.D. Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2020
BioJunting Duan is a PhD candidate in the Department of Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) at Stanford University. Prior to joining Stanford, she received her B.S. in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics from Peking University in 2020.
Junting's research interests lie broadly in data-driven decision-making, focusing on statistical inference and machine learning, with applications to causal inference and finance. Her research develops new methodologies with rigorous statistical foundations that enable reliable decision-making with complex and imperfect data, and lies at the intersection of (1) statistical learning for high-dimensional data; (2) causal inference; and (3) machine learning for finance and risk management. Her work has been recognized through publications and revisions at top journals including Management Science and the Journal of Econometrics, as well as invitations to present at major conferences such as the American Economic Association Annual Meeting, the NBER-NSF Time-Series Conference, the NBER Forecasting & Empirical Methods Conference, and the INFORMS Annual Meeting.
