Dr Zien Zhou
I am an NSW Cardiovascular Elite Postdoctoral Researcher. I obtained my MD degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (China) in 2011 and my PhD degree from ̽»¨ÏµÁÐ Sydney in 2022 (̽»¨ÏµÁÐ Scientia Scholarship awardee). Before joining The George Institute, affiliated with the ̽»¨ÏµÁÐ Sydney, I worked as a radiologist in China for eight years. My research focuses on brain imaging analysis in stroke, brain-heart interaction, cerebral small vessel disease, and optimal antithrombotic treatment for cardioembolic stroke prevention. I am now leading a project funded by NSW Health to explore the value of brain images in atrial fibrillation management.
