Bio.
Wanying Ling (凌宛莹) 
, aka Gufan (谷凡), is a PhD student in the Department of Sociology at the University of Hong Kong.
My research interests intersect at the nexus of work and health , aging and the life course and gender inequality, employing formal demography and experiments tools. My academic research is primarily focused on work-life inequalities in Asia and Europe. This focus has led me to explore several key areas: how work characteristics (such as quantity and quality) can either mitigate or exacerbate health inequalities among populations; the levels and trends in gender gaps in working life expectancy across various institutional settings; the nature of non-standard work and the process of professionalization; and finally, the social determinants of health and well-being, along with their biological mechanisms.
My recent research interests include: working life expectancy; health consequences of mismatched work; tattoo artists and tattoo practice.
