85年6月生，2007年Princeton本科毕业，2008年博士毕业，现为Harvard学者协会研究人员
研究课题触及200年来经济学的核心精神，涉及经济学的几乎全部领域，甚至超出经济学的领域都做得超好
同时横跨 生物演化理论，科学哲学和科学学习，应用数学和统计，机器学习和人工智能多个学科
普林斯顿的教授说，他是20年来普林斯顿最好的学生。
PKU某教授评价：
Samulson、Von Neumann级别的经济学家。在这小子面前，PKU的师生基本属于文盲级别…
8g:
Chicago直接给他tenure，他没去，选择了Harvard （可能是为了他从大一就开始的gf..P本科H博士在读）
天才小帅哥还只是engaged，各位女同学还有机会上位…当然已婚的也不用放弃

Biography
E. (Eric) Glen Weyl is a second-year Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows. He also spends each June in Toulouse, France as a visiting researcher at the Toulouse School of Economics (TSE).
Glen was born in San Francisco on May, 6 1985 and raised in the Bay Area before attending boarding school at Choate Rosemary Hall in Connecticut. He was valedictorian of Princeton’s 2007 class, receiving an AB in economics, followed by an MA and PhD in 2008.
Glen’s primary intellectual interests are in pure and applied microeconomic theory, with a focus on industrial organization, as well as the intersection between economics and other disciplines, particularly philosophy and evolutionary biology. His research, which he has presented at dozens of venues on three continents, addresses topics ranging from the career choices of talented students to the relationship between Simon Kuznets’s Russian Jewish heritage and his economic thinking.
His first two academic articles, one on two-sided markets and a second on individual rights, have just been published in Economics Letters and Politics, Philosophy and Economics respectively. A third article “A Price Theory of Multi-Sided Platforms” is forthcoming in the American Economic Review. His current research includes:
- Developing a new model of first-order econometric identification and applying it to industrial organization
- Designing market institutions, such intellectual property (joint with Jean Tirole) and systems for assembling disparately owned property (joint with Scott Kominers)
- Theory and experiments, joint with Megan Frederickson and other co-authors, on cooperation between species, especially plants and ants
- Connecting and testing (with Yali Miao) stability, uniqueness and comparative statics in multi-dimensional equilibrium systems
Glen served as a preceptor (teaching assistant) for Financial Economics I, a second-year PhD asset pricing course, at Princeton and has been a guest lecturer in several classes at Princeton and TSE. He is also a referee for scholarly journals including the American Economic Review, Econometrica, the Journal of Political Economy and the Quarterly Journal of Economics. He has been an academic visitor at universities and ministries in Brazil, Chile and México, as well as a research intern at the US Department of Justice Antitrust Division.
Outside his academic life, Glen serves on the advisory board of Esopus, an art magazine. In August 2010, he plans to marry to Alisha C. Holland; his girlfriend since freshman year of college, a Harvard Ph. D. student in government and the winner of the Pyne Prize (Princeton’s highest undergraduate honor).
以下是PKU某“文盲”教授与某“白丁”博士生对话：
climategate, a big scandal 说 (19:54):
你现在悠哉游哉啊
给你看个天才，刺激你一下
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (19:54):
没有啊，不用刺激我了。我已经很紧张…
climategate, a big scandal 说 (19:54):
http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~weyl/
climategate, a big scandal 说 (19:55):
看看他的cv
看看他研究的东西
北大的师生在他面前，基本属于文盲
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (19:56):
我的论文还没忙完，博士课题要做的还没开始，fulbright申请又杯具了，哪里悠哉得起来:(
climategate, a big scandal 说 (19:56):
呵呵
挫折是好事
climategate, a big scandal 说 (19:57):
好好沉下心做点好的研究嘛
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:21):
85年的小后生，崩溃了..
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:21):
问题是他已然是samulson级别的人啦
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:22):
甚至他是冯纽曼级别的人啊
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:23):
老C和我佩服的人不多，虽然很多人比我们做的好。但是，我俩今天下午认真读了他的东西，真服了他
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:23):
啊，我没有仔细看，原来到了这等层次！
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:24):
他的论文讨论的出发点都是很简单的问题，但是都是200年来经济学的核心精神。不是靠技术解决啥问题，而是扩展了人们的经济学思考。他感兴趣的题目涉及经济学的几乎全部领域
甚至超出经济学的领域
都做得超好
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:25):
我看他的bio中写了…cooperation between species, especially plants and ants
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:25):
他还做演化理论，科学哲学和科学学习，机器人和人工智能
哈哈哈
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:25):
这太强大了
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:26):
nobel econ prize 和 acm turing prize以前有一人得过，他可以再创造这个奇迹吧
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:26):
plants and ants，史研究生物多样性和演进理论中的核心问题
他是超级天才
他的知识面比我和老C广，他做的每个问题都很有创见。
他2007年本科毕业
2008年博士毕业
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:27):
。。。。一年啊，princeton这么出天才
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:27):
你说的是西蒙，可是西蒙在经济学里的影响是第二层次的
西蒙在经济学里做的东西太偏
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:28):
对，simon主要贡献在人工智能上
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:28):
普林斯顿的教授说，他是20年来普林斯顿最好的学生
20年普林斯吨能培养好几个诺贝尔奖呢
哈哈
芝加哥直接给他tenure，他没去，选择了harvard
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:28):
太强大了…天才没得比
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:29):

Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:30):
哈哈，我们是最最低级的白丁了..
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:31):
你看他写的scientic learning那一篇
是跨学科的
研究科学哲学
Jixhu@Y2-429Whu 说 (20:34):
我要把他的英勇事迹放到blog上顶礼膜拜..
climategate, a big scandal 说 (20:39):
是啊
激励年轻人
西蒙是我们这个时代一个多才多艺的人，他的博士学位是政治学，他的诺贝尔奖是经济学，他在管理学、计算机科学、心理学和哲学等领域也有突出的贡献。他多才多艺，兴趣广泛，会画画，会弹钢琴，既爱爬山、旅行，又爱学习各种外国语，能流利地说多种外语。作为科学家，他涉足的领域之多，成果之丰，影响之深远，令人叹为观止。西蒙是人工智能和数学定理计算机证明的奠基者之一。他和纽厄尔(Allen Newell)合作的一系列开创性的研究成果，改变了我们对人脑和电脑关系的理解。他和纽厄尔1975年同获计算机领域的最高奖图灵奖，是因为他们在创立和发展人工智能方面的杰出贡献，当然是计算机科学家。西蒙是“管理决策理论”的创始人。他提出了管理的决策职能，并建立了系统的决策理论。这一理论被公认为是关于公司企业实际决策的独创见解。西蒙在1978年更荣获诺贝尔经济学奖，不言而喻是世界一流的大经济学家。而且他是管理学界唯一的诺贝尔经济学奖获得者。瑞典皇家科学院对西蒙的学术贡献作出这样的评价：“现代企业经济学和管理研究大部分基于西蒙的思想”。1986年他又因为在行为科学上的出色贡献而荣获美国全国科学奖章(National Medal of Science)。1969年，美国心理学会由于西蒙在心理学上的贡献而授予他“杰出科学贡献奖”(Distinguished Scientific Contributions Award)。
希尔伯特·西蒙在管理学、心理学、计算机、经济学等领域都做出过开创性的贡献，被人称作百科全书式的人物和人类历史上罕见的通才。
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Simon
Herbert Alexander Simon (June 15, 1916– February 9, 2001) was an American political scientist,economist, and psychologist, and professor—most notably at Carnegie Mellon University—whose research ranged across the fields of cognitive psychology, computer science, public administration, economics, management, philosophy of science, sociology, and political science. With almost a thousand very highly cited publications, he is one of the most influential social scientists of the 20th century.
Simon was a polymath, among the founding fathers of several of today’s important scientific domains, includingartificial Intelligence, information processing, decision-making, problem-solving,attention economics, organization theory, complex systems, and computer simulation ofscientific discovery. He coined the terms bounded rationality and satisficing, and was the first to analyze the architecture of complexity and to propose a preferential attachmentmechanism to explain power law distributions.
He also received many top-level honors later in life. These include: the ACM‘s Turing Award for making “basic contributions to artificial intelligence, the psychology of human cognition, and list processing” (1975); the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics “for his pioneering research into the decision-making process within economic organizations” (1978); the National Medal of Science (1986); and the APA‘s Award for Outstanding Lifetime Contributions to Psychology (1993).
As a testament to his interdisciplinary approach, Simon was affiliated with such varied Carnegie Mellon departments as the School of Computer Science, Tepper School of Business, Departments of Philosophy, Social and Decision Sciences, and Psychology.
