About
Dr. Hongyu Sun is a Neuroscience researcher at Carleton University's Faculty of Health Sciences since 2016. He holds an MD from Tianjin University (1997) and a PhD in Neuroscience from Carleton University (2008), followed by postdoctoral training at Boston Children’s Hospital/Harvard Medical School.
- Teaches NEUR 2002: Introduction to Statistics in Neuroscience.
- Focuses on early-life epilepsy, stress effects on synaptic development, and molecular signaling pathways.
- Utilizes electrophysiology, neuroimaging, and molecular biology techniques.
His recent publications span neuroscience (e.g., Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease) and materials science (e.g., battery technology, electron microscopy). Research trends emphasize interdisciplinary approaches to neurodevelopmental disorders and advanced materials characterization.
He has received no explicitly mentioned awards but has contributed to significant peer-reviewed works in both fields. The Sun Lab investigates how early-life experiences reshape glutamatergic synapses and cause long-term cognitive deficits.
