About

I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Indiana University Indianapolis. I earned my Ph.D. from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington, where I worked with Dr. Dajiang Zhu. My research interests lie in Computational Neuroscience and Medical AI. My goal is to develop reliable AI-driven computational approaches to uncover the fundamental organizational principles of brain and apply these principles and discoveries to advance our understanding of brain development, normal aging, and brain disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
