Changmei received a PhD training at CEBSIT (ION). During her PhD period in Dr. Jiulin Du lab, she focused on the logic of Locus coeruleus-norepinephrine system in anatomical and functional organization. After that, she received her first postdoctoral training in the same lab. Now, she continues her interested research in the Prof. Dr. Logothetis lab at the ICPBR.

Changmei is interested in combining neuroimaging, electrophysiological recording and genetical manipulations to study the role of neuromodulators in neural representation of emotion.
