I am a Professor of Neural Science and Psychology at NYU Shanghai and a Global Network Professor at NYU. Prior to joining NYU Shanghai, I was an Associate Professor of Psychology at The University of Hong Kong. I obtained a Ph.D. in Cognitive Science from Brown University (Providence, RI, US), and a BS in Psychology from Peking University (Beijing, China). After a postdoctoral fellowship at the Schepens Eye Research Institute and the Department of Ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School (Boston, MA, US), I worked as a senior research associate in the Human Systems Integration Division at NASA Ames Research Center (Moffett Field, CA, US) before I moved back to Asia. I serve as Associate Editor for Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews (Elsevier), Action Editor for eNeuro (Society for Neuroscience), and Subject Editor for Displays (Elsevier).

I received my M.Sc. degree in Psychology from Peking University and a Ph.D. degree in Cognitive Psychology from The University of Hong Kong. Prior to joining the Neuroscience Program at NYU Shanghai, I was a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Psychology at The University of Hong Kong. My research interests include human perception and control of self-motion, visuomotor control, and virtual reality. At NYU Shanghai, I work with my supervisor, Professor Li Li, and conduct research on healthy adults and neurodegenerative patients (patients with Parkinson’s disease).

I obtained an M.S. degree in educational and developmental psychology from South China Normal University(Guangzhou, China) and my research focused on cognitive aging and cognitive training. Currently, my research focuses on the visuomotor control of healthy and neurodegenerative patients(PD, iRBD). I hope we can find powerful screening and training tools for these patients.

I got my B.S. degree in Applied Psychology from Tianjin Normal University and M.S. degree in Cognitive Neuroscience from East China Normal University. Now I’m working as a Ph.D. student in the PA lab. My current research focuses on the visual and non-visual information which influences our perception of object motion during self-motion.

I obtained a Master of Science by Research degree at the University of Birmingham (Birmingham, UK) and a B.S. degree in applied psychology at Shannxi Normal University (Shannxi, China). My research interests include visual attention and motion control by the methodology of Eyelink and the role of cognitive factors in visual control and locomotion by brain imaging technique (e.g., fMRI), VR and Eyelink, etc. Currently, I am working as a research associate on the program of visual control in patients with PD using Eyelink.
