China and Russia are Getting Bolder
Military intelligence briefings are often presented to executive level leadership as succinct one-page reports consisting of a summary, background context, and 3 potential recommendations. This particular study delves into the collaborative maneuvers executed by China and Russia over contested Japanese territory in August 2020. Leveraging threat assessment techniques, Mei conducted a comprehensive review of open-source intelligence to inform leadership about the most effective course of action in response to such provocations.

China and Censorship in the Age of COVID-19
Mei's graduate thesis was an in-depth investigation of China's censorship strategies during the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. Employing a combination open-source and social media intelligence, alongside on-the-ground disease surveillance methodologies, Mei provided a real-time reconstruction of the dissemination of COVID-19 information in China during the spring of 2020. Systematically analyzing changes in the censorship landscape over time, Mei then lays out the impact of COVID-19 on China's future censorship policies.
