About the researcher

At the intersection of
AI and brain health.

I'm Ping-Ju Lin, a Research Assistant Professor at Peking University. I develop machine-learning methods to better understand neurological disease and predict rehabilitation outcomes.

My research connects MRI, EEG, clinical measurements, and behavioral data, with a focus on Alzheimer's disease, stroke recovery, and brain-computer-interface supported rehabilitation.
