OHBM 2023 - Xujun Duan

Dr. Xujun Duan is a professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China. She received her PhD in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, and conducted a Joint PhD study at Stanford University under the supervision of Dr. Vinod Menon. Her long-term research goal is to address how brain anatomy, function and connectivity are altered in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and how they vary across the population, by using multi-modal brain imaging techniques and computational methods.

Over the past decade, she has dedicated to delineate a comprehensive and consistent mapping of the abnormal structure and function of the autistic brain, and reaches a consensus that the “social brain” are the most affected regions in the autistic brain at different levels and modalities. She further proposed a personalized functional-connectivity guided brain stimulation strategy targeting the “social brain” to improve social deficits of ASD. She is the PI of 4 research projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and awarded the first prize of the Science and Technology Progress Awards of Sichuan Province, China.
