About
Xiaoli Fan is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Resource Economics and Environmental Sociology, University of Alberta. Xiaoli received her PhD (2017) degree from Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management, Cornell University and her MA (2009) and BA (2007) degrees in international economics from Wuhan University, China. Xiaoli’s research focuses on understanding consumer and producer behaviour to inform better agricultural policies and decision-making. Her other research interests include food and agribusiness management, antimicrobial use and antimicrobial resistance in the livestock industry, bioeconomic modelling, and pest and disease management.
