I am a fifth-year PhD student at the Artificial Intelligence Department, Renmin University of China (RUC). I am advised by Prof. Zihe Wang. Previously, I was an undergraduate student in computer science at Central South University (CSU).

Broadly, I am interested in decision-making problems at the intersection of computer science, economics, and operations research. Recently, my research has focused on information design, with particular emphasis on competitive information design games.

Feel free to email me at duzhicheng@ruc.edu.cn. Here is my CV. I will be on the job market later this year and am seeking postdoctoral opportunities in OR/OM.
