Ted Hsuan Yun Chen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy at George Mason University. His research agenda focuses on the social and political consequences of climate change and efforts to stem these often unequal outcomes. He is particularly interested in the heterogeneity in how individuals adapt to climate change exposure, including through political participation and migration, and the role of activism and science communication in preferences toward climate policies. He also has a methodological focus in developing network approaches for studying complexity in political phenomena, with emphasis on multilayer network representations of social and political systems.
