I am a graduate student in the Duke Psychology and Neuroscience 2017 cohort. I graduated from Shanghai Jiao Tong University with B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering. Currently I am working with Drs. Roberto Cabeza, Simon Davis, and Greg Appelbaum. I am interested in age-related changes in functional brain networks mediating memory encoding and retrieval, and how brain network topology may affect the cognitive-enhancing effect of non-invasive brain stimulation.
