Brief Introduction:

Xiaoya Liu, M.D., serves as a postdoctoral fellow at the Academy of Medical Engineering and Translational Medicine at Tianjin University. She has been engaged in the analysis and processing of EEG signals, particularly focusing on the neural response patterns, identification markers, and regulation techniques of mental diseases such as depressive disorder. Her research contributions are evident in her over 10 papers published in esteemed international journals, including four as the first author in top journals specializing in mental health disorders, like the Journal of Affective Disorders and IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering. Additionally, she has filed for five national invention patents, two of which have been granted, with one invention patent undergoing examination in the United States and one software copyright secured. At the same time, she has participated in multiple national key research and development projects, and the National Natural Science Foundation of China. Her achievements have been recognized with honors such as the First Prize for Excellent Young Paper at the Chinese Biomedical Engineering Congress, the National Doctoral Student Scholarship, as well as the accolade of "Outstanding Individual in Scientific and Technological Innovation" awarded by Tianjin University.
