🐝 About Me
I am currently a senior student from School of Biological Science and Medical Engineering, Beihang University.
I am priviledged to have been admitted and will be joining Birth Lab led by Prof. Qiyuan Tian (田启源) from School of Biomedical Engineering, Tsinghua University as a Ph.D. student next year. Currently, I am serving as a research assistant in the lab under the mentorship of Prof. Tian and PhD. student Mingxuan Liu (刘铭轩). I was previously advised by Prof. Xiaoyu Liu (刘笑宇) from School of Biological Science and Medical Engineering, Beihang University.
My researches focuse on AI for neuroscience, specifically targeting post-stroke cognitive impairment assessment and rehabilitation, and prenatal eeuroimaging analysis and diagnostics.
