Jade Jiaxuan Dang
PhD student in Neuroscience, University of Missouri-Columbia
My research passion lies at the intersection of neuroimaging, neurodiversity, child development, and language processing.
I employ multiple techniques, including behavioural studies, EEG/ERPs, fMRI, TMS, and research with neurodiverse people and kids, to shed light on the complex nature of processing in the human mind and brain.

I am currently in my 2nd year in Neuroscience at the University of Missouri.
Outside the lab, you might find me journaling, cooking, practising archery, or backpacking around the world with a camera in hand.
