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.
