Research Interests

My research has long been focused on translational imaging characterization of neuropsychiatric disorders with the innovative utilization of MRI in the field of psychoradiology.

Biography

To date I have published over 300 peer-reviewed articles relevant to my research focus, and those in recent five years received over 5000 citations. In particular, the MR imaging studies of first episode, medication free patients with mental disorders have been the basis for my invited reviews for journals in the field such as American Journal of Psychiatry (Gong et al. 2016; 173(3):232-43) and Biological Psychiatry (Gong et al. 2015; 77 (3), 223), and in particular, the one entitled " Psychoradiology: The Frontier of Neuroimaging in Psychiatry" has been published in Radiology (2016; 281:357–72), the leading journal in the field of radiology. I was appointed as the associate editor of the American Journal of Psychiatry. I helped to pioneer the discovery of brain functional impairments in individuals at high risk of mental disorders and the translation of this new knowledge into predictive diagnostics for major depression.
