Profile:
I joined the PhD program at Upstate in Fall 2022. It was the first time leaving my home country, and I was excited and nervous. I am currently in one of the psychiatry and behavioral science labs, under the guidance of Dr. Wei-Dong Yao. My research will focus on the neural circuitry of fronto-temporal dementia. Apart from being in the lab, I love to spend time with my son in the libraries and parks in Syracuse.
