Monic Sun explores counter-intuitive consequences of digital technology for businesses. She has studied the effects of user-generated content, location-based targeting, social-networking sites, and peer-to-peer markets.

Her research has appeared in top marketing journals and popular media outlets such as BBC, Forbes, and NPR. She currently serves on the editorial boards of Marketing Science and Journal of Marketing Research.
