Alexis Du completed his undergraduate studies in Economics and Econometrics at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, where he was part of the selective Magister program. He later pursued a Master’s in Economics and Psychology through a joint programme involving Paris 1, Paris-Cité, and PSE. Alexis’s research focused on behavioural economics and neuroeconomics. His first thesis examined the emotional foundations of altruism through the lens of guilt and shame. In contrast, his second thesis explored the causal effects of social media adoption on suicide rates. Alongside Alexis’ studies, he worked as a research assistant on projects related to labour market biases and environmental psychology, contributing to two research papers under review. He also taught undergraduate courses in microeconomics, statistics, and econometrics. Fluent in French, Chinese, and English, Alexis always tries to bring an interdisciplinary and international perspective to his academic journey
