About Xiaojun Li

Xiaojun Li was born and raised in sunny Southern China. She attended medical school at Tsinghua University, where she found her love for cognitive neuroscience. During medical school, she spent two years at the University of Pittsburgh as a visiting scholar, investigating the orbitofrontal cortex’s roles in compulsion and action selection under conflict. She then returned to China and participated in building a multimodal dementia database. After graduation, driven by a desire to improve the well-being of patients with dementia, Xiaojun moved back to the United States and led enrichment therapies for patients with dementia at a skilled nursing facility in Berkeley, CA. Her academic interests include cognitive neurology, movement disorders, and palliative care. For fun, she enjoys rock climbing, kayaking, playing frisbee, and fiddling with her art projects.
