Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolYoucun Zheng is a computational neuroscience researcher and incoming PhD student in Data Science who blends strong mathematical training with hands-on neurophysiology, working with iEEG and single-neuron recordings to probe speech and emotion. Currently a research intern at NYU-ECNU and formerly at UC San Diego’s Swartz Center, he has collaborated with leading labs on human and animal electrophysiology under advisors including Xing Tian and Tzyy-Ping Jung. With nine years of experience across academia and industry roles—from brain disorder centers to equity analysis—he pairs analytical rigor with practical skills in Python, Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, and MySQL. His trajectory spans intensive summer programs (Cold Spring Harbor, Neuromatch, Imperial College) that reflect a rare blend of computational, experimental, and quantitative breadth. Notably, he moves fluidly between bench and code, positioning himself to translate neural recordings into data-driven models of speech and affect.
