Welcome to
Yangbo SONG (Darcy) WEBSITE
Dr. Song got his bachelor degree in economics and finance from the University of Hong Kong and his Ph.D. in economics from University of California, Los Angeles. He joined the School of Management and Economics of CUHK (Shenzhen) in August 2016. His research interests include game theory and its applications, information economics and network economics.
I am primarily interested in information transmission among rational Bayesian agents in networks and other economic institutions. My current research focuses on social learning and information transparency, as well as their applications in industrial organizations. Please see my working papers and work in progress for more details.
