Yi Yang, affiliated with Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China, is a leading clinician-scientist specializing in neurorestoration, disorders of consciousness (DoC), and neuromodulation therapies. His research emphasizes understanding neural mechanisms underlying consciousness, motor function recovery, and brain network plasticity following brainstem injury, stroke, and other neurological disorders. Yi Yang integrates advanced neuroimaging, electroencephalography (EEG), functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), and brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies to quantify motor intention, assess consciousness levels, and develop targeted rehabilitation strategies for patients with cognitive and motor impairments. He has made significant contributions to clinical translation of neuromodulation approaches, including epidural spinal cord stimulation and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, demonstrating improvements in motor recovery and hemodynamic responses. His work also includes clinical diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines for ischemic stroke neurorestoration, highlighting his role in evidence-based clinical practice. Yi Yang has authored 98 Scopus-indexed publications, accumulating 1,370 citations with an h-index of 22, demonstrating both scientific impact and clinical relevance. Key studies include multimodal BCI applications for motor intention quantization, thalamic burst and tonic firing as biomarkers of consciousness, and cerebral neurovascular networks as potential targets for DoC interventions. His research advances neural plasticity understanding, supports personalized neurorestorative therapies, and aims to enhance functional recovery and quality of life for patients with severe neurological conditions.
