Group Leader
Jiayu Chen Research Assistant Professor, TReNDS Center & Georgia State University
My research interests center on imaging genomics, aiming to characterize the genetic underpinnings of neurobiological traits that further relate to phenotypic manifestations of various mental disorders. My research involves developing computational methods to mine high-dimensional complex data for better understanding of genetic effects on brain... more
