Rate My Professor Han Yuan

Yuan's research focuses on neuroimaging and neuromodulation technologies, including multimodal brain imaging with EEG, functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), and fMRI, as well as electrical and magnetic stimulation techniques. He develops imaging methods to identify biomarkers for neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders such as PTSD, depression, and glioma. As Director of the Laboratory for Integrated Neuroimaging and Neuromodulation, he leads projects investigating brain resting-state networks, functional connectivity, and neural co-activations. Notable publications include "Reconstructing Large-scale Brain Resting State Networks from High-Resolution EEG: Spatial and Temporal Comparisons with fMRI" (Brain Connectivity, 2016), "Brain-Computer Interfaces using Sensorimotor Rhythms: Current State and Future Perspectives" (IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2014), "Postsurgical Perilesional Functional Connectivity Predicts Neurological Outcome in Glioma Patients" (Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2026), and "Controlling Jaw-Related Motion Artifacts in Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy" (Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2023). Yuan has received the Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship and NIH Neuro-physical-computational Sciences Graduate Training Fellowship from the University of Minnesota. He serves as Research Project Leader for the Oklahoma Center for Medical Imaging and Clinical Research (OCMICR) COBRE and collaborates on significant grants, including a $12 million DARPA-funded project on brain stimulation.
