Research Focus
Dr. Deqiang Qiu's lab at Emory University focuses on advancing our understanding of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) through innovative research combining artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced neuroimaging techniques. The team aims to develop explainable and ethically sound AI models for diagnosing and predicting AD while studying how blood flow in the brain impacts cognitive function in early stages of the disease. Their work seeks to enhance patient care and develop therapeutic interventions that address both AD and related vascular issues.

Career totals from OpenAlex, compared against labs that share a department. A department spans everything from one paper to tens of thousands, so bar heights are on a log scale — otherwise the largest lab would flatten every other bar to a line.
