Shuqi Liu, PhD

Shuqi received her undergraduate degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from Centre College. Shuqi is pursuing her Ph.D. in Bioengineering with a focus on the Neural Engineering track. Shuqi is interested in understanding the impact of aging on motor learning, gait automaticity, and mobility. Her current project involves using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to study prefrontal cortex engagement during walking. She is interested to see if interventions like the split-belt treadmill can improve community mobility in older adults.

Outside the lab, Shuqi enjoys hiking, traveling, watching movies, and good food.
