Bio.
Wanying Ling (凌宛莹)
is a PhD candidate in the Department of Sociology at the University of Hong Kong.
My research asks how modern societies organize people's lives over time, and how the reorganization or weakening of these institutional arrangements produces inequalities in health, family formation, and well-being. My work sits at the intersection of social demography, sociology of work, and social epidemiology. Substantively, I focus on how changing work and family institutions shape life-course transitions and health inequalities. Methodologically, I use longitudinal and comparative survey data, survey experiments, and emerging computational tools to study these processes.
My recent research interests include: working time mismatch; AI detection in the social sciences; epigenetic age
