Hi there, how can I help you? What can I do for you?

Research

  • Collaborate research on childhood adversity and psychopathology. Feel free to reach out and let’s work together!

  • Statistical/data analytical help in (80% using R, 20% using Python and Matlab):
    • classic methods (T test, ANOVA, ANCOVA, etc.)
    • graph-based network analysis (path length, cluster coefficients, small worldness index, etc.)
    • classic algorithms in machine learning (Kmeans, logistic regressions, PCA, ICA)
    • longitudinal data analysis (Linear mixed-effect model)
    • meta-analysis (multilevel method for behavioral data, ALE for neuroimaging data)
    • task-based fMRI data analysis
    • structural MRI: freeSurfer for T1 and T2 data, TBSS for DTI data
  • Psychological experiments design, especially when you want to do task-based fMRI or EEG. I can provide help to adpot experiments using Eprime or PsychoPy. But my expertise on experiment design mainly are for decision making tasks and cognition tasks, such as stroop, n-back, MID, delay discounting.

Others

  • Share your research: I am co-organizing CNC Journal Club in my institute. If you are willing to share your research on Brain, Psychiatry, Neuroimaging, I would be very happy to send you an invitation. We usually do this in Wednesday each two weeks. Please do not hesitate to contact me;)

  • Bachelor/Master thesis supervison: Sommer’s lab is recruiting interns per semester, I can help you if you are intereted in childhood adversity/environmental risk factors and schizophrenia.

  • European PhD positions application consulting: if you want to know how to apply PhD position or the experiences of doing a PhD in Europe, feel free to reach out.
