Lei Li

Dr. Lei Li is an Associate Professor at the University of Southern California, specializing in advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques and their applications in neuroscience and biomedical engineering. Their research focuses on quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), neural representation models, and neurodegenerative disease diagnostics.

Recent publications (2025-2023) highlight innovations in wireless implantable neural interfaces, Multiphoton MRI, and deep learning-based image reconstruction. These works address challenges in neurodegeneration (e.g., Parkinson's, Alzheimer's), iron accumulation mapping, and robotics for MRI scanners.
