biography
Dr. Xiuyun Liu is a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of physiology nursing, University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), USA. She undertook her PhD in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Cambridge, UK. Dr. Liu has experience in clinical data analysis, especially cerebral autoregulation assessment, transcrannial doppler studies. Her research is related with treatment of traumatic brain injury patient.
Area of Interest
Dr. Liu is interested in biomedical data analysis. She also is keen on cerebral blood flow research. She has investigated different methods for cerebral autoregulation assessment, including time domain, frequency domain and time-frequency domain methods. She cares about biomedical engineering related projects.
