Shu-Chen Li

Shu-Chen Li promovierte 1994 an der University of Oklahoma (USA) und war danach bis 1995 Postdoktorandin an der McGill University (Canada). Anschließend arbeitete sie am Max-Planck-Institut für Bildungsforschung (MPIB) in Berlin bis August 2012, unter anderem als Projektleiterin des Projekts „Neuromodulation of Lifespan Cognition“. Seit September 2012 leitet Shu-Chen den Lehrstuhl Entwicklungspsychologie und Neurowissenschaft der Lebensspane an der Technische Universität Dresden. Seit 2019 ist sie Mitglied im Sprecherteam des Excellence Clusters CeTI.

Ihr Forschungsschwerpunkt befasst sich mit der menschlichen Entwicklung über die Lebensspanne. Insbesondere untersucht sie die neurobiologischen und kontextualen Mechanismen kognitiver, motivationaler und emotionaler Entwicklung von der frühen Kindheit bis ins hohe Alter. Ein zentraler Fokus liegt dabei auf dem Zusammenspiel zwischen neuronalen (z. B. neurotransmittersystembezogenen) und kontextuellen (z. B. belohnungs- oder stressbezogenen) Modulatoren.

• Neurokognitive und Verhaltensentwicklung über die Lebensspanne
• Entwicklungsplastizität und Gehirnplastizität über die Lebensspanne
• Neuroökonomie und Altern
• Neuronale Netzwerke und formale Modellierung der Kognition
• Stress und Entwicklung über die Lebensspanne
• Biokulturelle Ko-Konstruktion von Entwicklung

• Mensch-Technologie-Interaktion und Plastizität über die Lebensspanne
