Dr. Yang Jiang is a tenured Professor at the University of Kentucky, affiliated with the Department of Behavioral Science (College of Medicine), Psychology Department (College of Arts and Sciences), and the Sanders-Brown Center on Aging. Her research in the ABC Lab focuses on neural mechanisms of sensory perception and cognition in aging and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, using fMRI, EEG/ERPs, and MEG. She developed the Bluegrass EEG protocol for early cognitive decline detection and leads federally funded (NIH, VA) projects on neurofeedback interventions.
Dr. Jiang has taught cognitive neuroscience courses at all academic levels and co-directs graduate seminars in the Clinical and Translational Science (CTS) program. Her collaborations span the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, MRI Center, and a NIH program project on Astrocyte Reactivity. She reviews grants for NIH and international agencies and serves on scientific boards like the Organization for Human Brain Mapping and Alzheimer’s Association.
Her recent publications (2025-2023) emphasize EEG/fMRI biomarkers for Alzheimer's and aging, neurofeedback efficacy, and brain connectivity in cognitive impairment. Awards include the WILEY Top Downloaded Article (2021) and leadership roles in federally funded research.
