Biography
Always looking for highly-motivated students and postdocs to join our team to work on understanding how the brain works! Feel free to email me if you are interested!
Hi, I am currently a Tenured-Track Associate Professor in Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University. My lab is Center for Brain-like Computing and Machine Intelligence (BCMI). My research interests cover the broad areas of affective brain-computer interfaces, computational neuroscience, machine learning, AI, clinical healthcare, and biomedical engineering.
Prior to SJTU, I was a Postdoc Associate in Department of Brain and Cognitive Science at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). I worked with Michael Halassa and Robert Yang on developing computational models for thalamocortical interactions in cognition. I was also a research fellow in Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, working with M Brandon Westover, MD, PhD. I obtained my PhD degree in the Center for Brain-Like Computing and Machine Intelligence, Department of Computer Science, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China, supervised by Bao-Liang Lu.I obtained my Bachelor degree from Talented Student Program in Department of Electronic and Information Engineering, South China University of Technology, China. I was a visiting researcher in The Cichocki Laboratory for Advanced Brain Signal Processing, Brain Science Institute, RIKEN, Japan, and in Intelligent Systems Group, Department of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, University of the Basque Country, Spain.
