Lenity Senior Research Fellow (USYD)Key Research Areas
Dr Sicong Tu is the Lenity Senior Research Fellow for neurodegenerative disorders at the Brain and Mind Centre, University of Sydney. His research employs leading multi-modal neuroimaging techniques (structural/functional/metabolic) to quantify changes in brain integrity and connectivity associated with neurodegeneration and cognitive dysfunction.
His research focuses on the discovery and translation of novel non-invasive markers for monitoring and tracking disease progression from its earliest stage in dementia and motor neuron disease. He holds particular interest in characterising regional patterns of change across key neural relay hubs as a marker of widespread cortical dysfunction and brain network abnormality.
