Lili Yu is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Psychological Sciences at Macquarie University. Her research primarily focuses on the cognitive and perceptual processes that underlie reading comprehension.

Her research interests encompass the examination of eye movements during reading, the interaction between visual attention and higher-order linguistic comprehension, and the effects of different writing systems on reading strategies.
