With advanced technology, cognitive and neurosciences have moved into the big data era, and deciphering neural complexity has become a grand challenge in brain science. We aim to study the structure-dynamics-function relationships of neural systems using approaches of statistical physics and complex dynamical network systems, by integrating computational modeling and analysis of various experimental data, such as EEG, fMRI, PET. Our focus is on neural complexity, including the organization principles (e.g., cost efficiency in structure and activity) and dynamical mechanism (e.g., neural criticality) of spontaneous and evoked complex neural activity at different scales (local circuit vs. whole brain connectome) and their impacts in neural information processing (e.g., learning and memory), brain cognition (e.g., cognitive flexibility) and neuropsychiatric disorders. We are also interested in applying the understanding from biological neural networks to the development of human-like, cost-efficient AI rooted in neural complexity. Our projects include: 1) Cost-efficient neural dynamics, intricate interaction with neural plasticity and information processing in neural circuit models; 2) Analyzing and modeling large-scale brain structural and functional networks in health and disorders, and applications in network-based brain modulations; and 3) Machine learning with complex neural network structure and dynamics. These projects will be carried out in close collaboration with scientists from computational and experimental cognitive and neurosciences, and experts in machine learning and AI.<\/span><\/section>\n<section style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right: 8px;line-height: 1.75em;margin-bottom: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\"><br  \/><\/span><\/section>\n<ol class=\"list-paddingleft-1\" style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right: 8px;\">\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\">\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75em;text-align: left;margin-bottom: 8px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\">J.H.

It underlies the formation of membraneless organelles and regulates many cellular processes. Dysregulation of phase separation in cells is implicated with various diseases including cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. It has been found that many intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) can undergo phase separation coupled to percolation (PSCP) and form biomolecular condensates. We are interested in understanding the physics of single-chain behavior of IDPs, the multivalent interactions mediated by the intrinsically disordered domains, and phase separation processes involving IDPs, RNA and DNA molecules. Molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations, and theories of phase transitions and polymer physics will be used. This study will provide new insights into the treatment of diseases involving phase separation processes.<\/span><\/section>\n<section style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right: 8px;line-height: 1.75em;margin-bottom: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\"><br  \/><\/span><\/section>\n<ol class=\"list-paddingleft-1\" style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right: 8px;\">\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\">\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75em;text-align: left;margin-bottom: 8px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\"><strong>X.

Proteins possess flexible structures that allow them to adapt to the environments and perform their dynamics related to biological functions. Meanwhile, the mutations in protein sequences may lead to variations in the protein structures, resulting in changes in their dynamics. The recent development of artificial intelligence (AI) provides us with new and powerful tools to analyze protein dynamics, evolution, and their correspondence on a large scale. The analyses based on AI-predicted protein structures, integrated with other kinds of biological big data, will not only have the potential to answer critical questions in the survival and regulation mechanisms of cells, but also offer new insights into evolutionary biology and protein design.<\/span><\/section>\n<section style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right: 8px;line-height: 1.75em;margin-bottom: 0px;text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\"><br  \/><\/span><\/section>\n<ol class=\"list-paddingleft-1\" style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right: 8px;\">\n<li>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.75em;text-align: left;margin-bottom: 8px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px;color: rgb(63, 63, 63);\"><strong>Q.-Y.

However, the pharmacological principles in TCM theory, the core treasure house of TCM, have rarely been systematically investigated in a top-down manner, which hinders the modernization and standardization of TCM. In this project, we will establish a novel TCM-based network pharmacology framework to discern low-dimensional patterns and principles of human disease and herb-diseases associations. This project will provide a basis for the objectification of the diagnosis and treatment process of TCM, and the knowledge fusion of TCM evidence-based medicine and modern biology.<\/span><\/section>\n<section style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right: 8px;line-height: 1.75em;margin-bottom: 0px;\"><br  \/><\/section>\n<section style=\"margin-left: 8px;margin-right:
