人物介紹
2012年獲得北京師範大學理學博士學位(導師:賀永教授)。主要研究方向為基於多模態神經影像技術的複雜腦網路方法學和臨床套用研究(重點關注阿爾茨海默病和抑鬱症)。圍繞人腦連線組學重大科學前沿課題,在活體人腦功能網路的模型構建、方法學評價和疾病模型驗證等方面開展了一系列工作。近年來,在本領域國際主流學術期刊Biological Psychiatry、Journal of Neuroscience、Radiology、Human Brain Mapping等發表論文40餘篇,其中Top期刊論文19篇,包括以第一作者或通訊作者發表在影響因子大於10的論文2篇(皆為封面論文)。相關研究成果受到國際同行的廣泛關注,並被Nature系列、Science、Neuron、PNAS 等國際頂尖期刊多次正面引用,引用次數達2700餘次,H指數21(google scholar)。6篇研究論文入選ESI Top 1%高被引論文或Top 0.1%熱門論文。關於輕度認知障礙患者的腦功能網路研究入選2013年度 Biological Psychiatry最傑出論文(12篇入選,排名第一),並榮獲2014年度國際生物精神病學協會Ziskind-Somerfeld研究獎(該獎項自2003年設立以來首次由中國人獲得)。作為核心成員開發了“腦網路分析工具包GRETNA”(軟體著作權登記號:2013SR046223)。該工具包被Matlab團隊遴選為12個高質量的神經科學工具包之一,並在2015年度神經科學學會上加以展示。受邀擔任客座副主編(Guest Associate Editor)在Frontiers in Neurosciene組織腦網路研究專刊。主持參與國家自然科學基金資助項目6項,主持浙江省自然科學基金重點項目1項。現為浙江省預防醫學會精神衛生專業委員會委員、國家自然科學基金和比利時FWO基金評審人。擔任Cerebral Cortex、Scientific Reports等20餘個國際期刊的審稿人。
學術貢獻
(一) 人腦功能連線組--方法學研究
採用靜息態功能影像和圖論網路分析,系統評價了多個關鍵因素(如腦節點定義等)對腦功能網路的影響、詳細刻畫了腦功能網路的重測信度、率先構建了基於功能近紅外光譜成像技術的腦網路計算模型等。這些工作為如何以及穩定可靠地構建腦功能網路提供了方法學指導,為神經精神疾病狀態下的腦功能網路研究奠定了重要的方法學基礎。相關研究成果發表在Human Brain Mapping、NeuroImage等國際權威期刊。
(二)人腦功能連線組--臨床套用研究
將已構建的腦功能網路方法學套用到阿爾茨海默病和抑鬱症,驗證了疾病狀態下腦網路模型,不但為相關疾病的腦網路紊亂假說提供了實驗證據,更為其早期診斷提供了潛在的腦連線組學生物標記物。相關研究成果發表在Biological Psychiatry、Human Brain Mapping等國際頂級期刊。
(三)人腦功能連線組--軟體平台開發
鑒於腦功能網路研究過程中步驟複雜繁瑣的特點,開發了腦網路分析軟體包GRETNA(軟體著作權登記號:2013SR046223)。作為重要參與者,開發了腦網路可視化軟體BrainNet Viewer(軟體著作權登記號:2012SR002849)。相關軟體已被國內外同行下載12,000餘次,極大地方便和推進了腦連線組學領域的發展。
