About Me

I’m Zhiyu, a Biomedical Engineering grad at Columbia with a passion for building tech at the intersection of health and computing. I work across brain-computer interfaces, AR/VR, and medical imaging, using tools like Python, Unity, and C# to create practical, human-centered solutions.

Projects

Memory Recall Task in Python

Built to support cognitive neuroscience experiments requiring memory recall assessment and EEG recording, this task challenges users to memorize object patterns and locations, then recall them from memory.

Memory Recall Task in Unity

Migrated the task from Python to C# to run in Unity VR, enabling cognitive experiments integrating both EEG and eye-tracking data collection with a VR headset.

Animal Classifier

Developed to demonstrate real-time animal image classification using a TensorFlow CNN model and a user-friendly interface.

Medical Image Transformation Toolbox in MATLAB

Designed to streamline medical image preprocessing and augmentation, featuring an interactive interface.

Experience

Laboratory for Intelligent Imaging and Neural Computing

Research Assistant

Built interactive cognitive tasks in and validated hardware setups to ensure accurate behavioral data capture.
