"Yujiao Jennifer SUN"
Bio:

Jennifer Y Sun completed her undergraduate thesis from Peking University studying neuronal network and visual circuit assembly. Applying both computational and systems approaches, her PhD research at University of Southern California focused on circuit computation and sensory cortical development. During her postdoc training at University of California San Francisco, She worked with Drs Roger Nicoll and Michael Stryker to apply molecular techniques, electrophysiology, and two-photon imaging to study the cellular and circuit mechanisms of neuroplasticity in developing and adult brain.
