About

I am Yang Guo, an Associate Research Scholar at Center for Policy Research on Energy and the Environment, Princeton University. My research focuses on eco-industrial development and sustainable infrastructure systems. I have published 13 first-authored papers in top journals such as Nature Sustainability (1), Nature Communications (2) and Environmental Science & Technology (4).

I was selected to several prestigious programs/honors, such as 2020 Schmidt Science Fellows (initiated by Schmidt Futures and Rhodes Trust, 22 fellows selected globally), 2020 Excellent Environmental Doctoral Dissertation (awarded by Chinese Society for Environmental Sciences, 11 awardees in China), and the 2018 Top Prize of Qian Yi Environment Award (one of the most prestigious awards for students in environmental studies in China, only one winner for top prize).
