About Wendy
I'm a second year Neuroscience PhD student working with Dr. Paul Thompson
at the Imaging Genetics Center at the University of Southern California.
I'm interested in developing and applying deep learning methods for tract-based diffusion imaging analysis, to
help understand changes in white matter tracts in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease progression, and potentially
relate them to other imaging modalities and non-imaging biomarkers.
For a complete list of my publications and presentations, see my Notion CV page.
For all inquiries, email me at <yixuefen at usc.edu>.
