Dr. Jiayu Zhan is an Affiliate in the School of Psychology & Neuroscience at the University of Glasgow, with research focusing on cognitive neuroscience, facial perception, emotion categorization, and social perception. Their work integrates neuroimaging, machine learning, and behavioral studies to explore how the brain processes facial features, social cues, and cultural influences on perception. Collaboration with leading researchers like Philippe G. Schyns and Rachael E. Jack highlights contributions to understanding brain pathways for emotion recognition and cross-cultural face beauty perception.
Publications (2018–2025) span Current Biology, Nature Human Behaviour, and IEEE conferences, addressing topics such as prefrontal cortex guidance in categorization, stereotype-driven social class perception, and neural mechanisms underlying decision biases. Research emphasizes bridging computational models with human behavior, including applications to social robotics and cultural neuroscience.
No scientific awards or grants are explicitly mentioned, though their prolific publication record indicates active research. The lab/teams involved are likely part of the University's cognitive and computational neuroscience groups, though specific team names are not provided.
