Short Biography
Xun Chen received the B.Sc. degree in the Department of
Electronic Science and Technology at the University of Science and
Technology of China (USTC) in 2009, and received the Ph.D. degree in the
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of
British Columbia (UBC) in 2013, under the supervision of Prof. Z. Jane
Wang. He has been a research scientist at UBC, working with Prof. Rabab
K. Ward. Before joining in USTC, he was with the Department of
Biomedical Engineering at the Hefei University of Technology.
His research interests include the broad areas of
statistical signal processing and machine learning in biomedical
applications, e.g. artificial intelligence in medicine, brain-computer
interface, multimodal image analysis, etc.. He has published over 150
scientific articles in prestigious IEEE/Elsevier journals. He received
the recognition of Clarivate Highly Cited Researcher (2024) and World¨s Top 2% Scientists by Elsevier/Stanford
(2020-2024). He is the recipient of IOP China Top Cited
Paper Award (2021), IEEE Instrum & Meas Society Best Paper Award (2020)
and Elsevier Highly Cited Research (2016). Besides, 14 articles are ESI
Highly Cited Papers in WOS. He is an IEEE Senior Member, the Member of
BCI Society, a TC Member of IEEE BISP/SSM/MBM, the Member-at-Large of IEEE TC
on Smart Medical Digitalization and Chinese Society of Biomedical
Engineering.
He is serving as Associate Editor-in-Chief for Intelligent Sports and Health, Area Editor for Signal Processing-Image Communication, Associate Editor for IEEE TBME/TIM/SPL/OJSP and Frontiers in Neuroscience, Editorial Board Member for Journal of Neuroscience Methods and Cognitive Neurodynamics, and also served as Guest Editor for Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience. He has served on a number of committees of international conferences, e.g. IEEE MMSP 2025, CICAI 2023, IEEE DSLW 2022/2021, IEEE ICMIPE 2021, IEEE GlobalSIP 2019, Brain Informatics 2019, GlobalSIP 2017 and CCECE 2016. He is also the reviewer for over 30 prestigious IEEE/Elsevier/Springer journals. He received the support of National Science Fund for Excellent Young Scholars in 2019, DAMO Academy Young Fellow in 2022, and the Changjiang (Yangtze River) Scholar Award in 2024.
