About Me

Hello. I am WANG Jiachuan, Elmer. I am a Ph.D. student at the National University of Singapore. I obtained my B.Sc. degrees in Biomedical Informatics from Zhejiang University and the University of Edinburgh. My research interests revolve around understanding neurocomputational mechanisms of cognition, from decoding fMRI data using machine learning methods to modeling learning and memory in behavioral experiments.

Currently, my focus lies in two projects: 1) modeling spatial learning in rodents and 2) conducting multi-voxel pattern analysis of human memory and emotions.

In my leisure time, I enjoy reading literature books. I write (essays and novels) regularly and sometimes translate.
