Headshot of Guanming Shi
I study the economics of industrial organization in the U.S and China. Much of my research focuses on firms' strategic behavior under imperfect competition including pricing, product offering, collusion, and intellectual property protection, with applications to biotechnology and innovation in the genetically modified seed industry. I am also interested in the adoption, profitability and impact of new technology, and emerging issues related to environment and development in developing economy.
