Wooyong Lee is a Lecturer in the Economics Discipline Group at the UTS Business School, University of Technology Sydney. He holds a PhD in Economics from the University of Chicago (2020), an MS in Statistics from the University of British Columbia (2014), and a BA in Economics and Statistics from Korea University (2012). His research focuses on econometrics and applied microeconomics, specializing in panel data methods, difference-in-differences frameworks, and dynamic models. He has developed methodologies addressing spillover effects in staggered DiD designs and partial identification in heterogeneous coefficient models. His work applies to real-world issues like lifecycle earnings dynamics and policy evaluation. Lee teaches econometrics at undergraduate and postgraduate levels and supervises research students. His publications appear in venues such as Statistical Inference for Stochastic Processes and peer-reviewed working papers. Research interests emphasize causal inference techniques, with contributions to handling unobserved heterogeneity and measurement errors in economic data. Ongoing work explores dynamic treatment choice models where treatment decisions respond to outcome shocks, challenging traditional parallel trends assumptions.
