大家好！Hello, everyone! 

My name is Dr. Emily M. Matson and I currently teach as an Adjunct Lecturer in Georgetown University's Department of History. I am a passionate historian and educator, and have designed and taught a variety of courses in modern East Asian History at Georgetown University, the George Washington University, the University of Maryland - College Park, American University, the College of William and Mary, and Randolph College. 

My first book, China's "Date Debate": How Manchurian Scholars Rewrote World War II, will be published in August 2026 with the University of Michigan Press, China Understandings Today series. Preorder your own copy today!  

I am also a Stephen M. Kellen term member on the Council on Foreign Relations, a recent non-resident fellow for the University of Pennsylvania Penn Project on the Future of U.S.-China Relations, and a research affiliate at the University of Virginia's East Asia Center. My research interests include Northeastern China (东北), historical memory, museums, and World War II.
