Specialty：Neurology, Internal Medicine,Radiology
Research Interests:
Prof. Li has a broad spectrum of research interests including cerebrovascular disease(stroke), imaging study of intracranial vascular structures and function, heart disease and stroke, metabolic disease, and stroke, stroke-related vascular risk factors, central nervous system infectious disease, neuropsychiatric disorders and cognitive function.
His primary research focus is the treatment and prevention of cerebrovascular disorders (stroke). Strokes are the second leading cause of death and the leading cause of morbidity worldwide. His research focuses on improving stroke diagnostics as well as developing new methods to enhance stroke treatment and recovery. His primary focus is applying novel imaging techniques to understand the mechanisms of stroke and discovering new methods to improve patient treatment and recovery.
Prof. Li received clinical and research training in the Royal Melbourne Hospital, University of Melbourne under the supervision of Professor Stephen Davis, former president of World Stroke Organization. He built up a strong stroke research team and network back to China. He has established close collaboration with international experts from Harvard Medical School, University of Melbourne, and Johns Hopkins University Hospital. Recently, He has proposed three novel imaging markers (Blend sign, Black hole Sign and Island Sign) to predict hematoma expansion in inpatients with intracerebral hemorrhage (all published in prestigious journal Stroke). His stroke research has gained public attention and covered by several mass media including Reuters Health, Healthy Living, and Chongqing Daily. His research has been recommended in the Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics as a novel approach to predict hematoma growth. His previous clinical research findings have been introduced to the international community by foreign experts in several medical books and online resources.(UP To Date, Handbook of the Cerebellum and Cerebellar Disorders, (Springer, 2013) Evidence-Based Neuroimaging Diagnosis and Treatment (Springer, 2013) Clinician's Guide to Diagnostic Imaging (Springer, 2014), Pitfalls in Diagnostic Radiology (Springer, 2015).Ourfindings have been externally validated by experts from Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School and commented by Harvard experts as “leading to paradigm shift in clinical practice”.
As a first prize recipient of several nationwide and regional medical English teaching competitions, Prof.Li speaks fluent academic English and teaches Neurology lessons for undergraduate overseas students for many years.
