Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Ziyun Xu"
- Ziyun Xu's recent research predominantly focuses on understanding the neurobiological mechanisms underlying mood disorders, particularly major depressive disorder (MDD) and bipolar disorder (BD), through advanced neuroimaging techniques, including resting-state fMRI and inhomogeneous magnetization transfer.
- The studies introduce novel measures and methods, such as spatiotemporal topology for analyzing brain activity dynamics in depression, and explore the coupling between global blood-oxygen-level-dependent signals and cerebrospinal fluid inflow in depressed patients, revealing potential biomarkers for glymphatic function and sleep disturbances.
- Additionally, Xu's work extends beyond mood disorders, investigating the implications of aquaculture practices and gaming disorder's neurobiological correlates, asserting a comprehensive research agenda that bridges mental health and applied sciences.
