I got my BSc at Peking University in China, where I have been exploring the mysteries of neural plasticity and the Alzheimer’s Disease. Since I started at UChicago, I gradually developed my interest in system neuroscience and decided to join the Maunsell lab, where I study how cortical spike rate increases and decreases are readout and used for guiding behaviors.
CON is a place where interdisciplinary research thrives and inspiring collaborations take place. Being surrounded by smart brains simply makes it more exciting to study how smart brains are.
When I’m not at my Rig, I enjoy traveling, doing sports, and playing music.
