🔥🔥My new lab has a new Postdoc position, exploring how genetic factors and environmental factors (e.g., early life stress) influence brain development, child psychopathology, and neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., autism) based on neuroimaging. Please check uscjobs.sc.edu/postings/194...

🔥🧠Excited to announce that I am recruiting PhD students this fall. Our lab uses neuroimaging (MRI) and computational modeling to study the mechanisms of neurodevelopmental disorders, bridging genetic factor, brain circuitry, early life stress, and psychopathology. Please feel free to DM me.
