- Complex research design: Combining qualitative and quantitative methods, two-step GMM estimation, serial mediation models, and longitudinal studies.
- Data science & applied science: Applying deep learning techniques in medical diagnostics and material science, alongside bibliometric analysis and science mapping.
The integration of micro–macro data and interdisciplinary methodologies ensures both academic rigor and strong practical applicability.
