Dr. Yuan is an associate professor with the Faculty of Health Sciences (FHS) at University of Macau (UM). He also has the second appointment as the Interim Director of the Centre for Cognitive and Brain Sciences at UM. His academic investigation is focused on cutting-edge research and development in laser, ultrasound and EEG/fMRI-related biomedical technologies as well as their clinical/pre-clinical applications in cognitive neuroscience and brain disorders. He has achieved national and international recognition through over 200 SCI publications in high ranked journals in his field such as Behaviour Research and Therapy, Neuroscience,The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, Brain Topography, Neurophotonics, Biological Psychiatry, Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging,Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, Optics Letters, Optics Express, and Applied Physics Letters. He is the editorial board member of Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery, editor of Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, senior associate editor of BMC Medical Imaging, and associate editor of Frontiers in Human Neuroscience. He is a senior member of OSA and SPIE and committee member of Chinese Biomedical Optical Society.
Optical mapping of brain activation during bilingual translationFaculty of Health Sciences/Centre for Cognitive and Brain Sciences, University of MacauTranslating from Chinese into another language or vice versa is becoming a widespread phenomenon. However, current neuroimaging studies are insufficient to reveal the complex cognitive mechanism underlying translation asymmetry during Chinese/English sight or simultaneous translation. In this talk, functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) was used to inspect the brain activation patterns associated with Chinese/English sight translation. In addition, we also examined the neural mechanism associated with three translation strategies regarding Chinese to English simultaneous interpreting.Virtual Psycholinguistics Forum: (https://cuhklpl.github.io/forum.html)
