Dr Juping Yu had extensive clinical experience in China before she moved to Britain in 2000. She completed her doctoral research at the University of Stirling, which examined social and cultural influences on the attitudes towards sexual behaviour held by British-born Chinese teenagers in Scotland. 

Her current work centres around two main themes: compassionate patient care; health and wellbeing across the lifespan.

Dr Juping Yu is co-chair of the Ethnic Minority Research Advisory Group (EMRAG), along with Dr Edward Oloidi and Versha Sood Mahindra, a visiting fellow at USW.  EMRAG was created to improve the way the University works and engages with people from ethnic minority communities in its research.
