Ongoing projects

Transcranial pulse stimulation (TPS)

  • Efficacy of long-term transcranial pulse stimulation (TPS) on cognition and brain structure in older adults with mild neurocognitive disorder (NCD): A randomized sham-controlled cross-over trial
  • A exploratory study of the potential benefit and mechanism of the long-term Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) on older adults with Alzheimer’s disease (AD)
  • Efficacy of a 24-week long term transcranial pulse stimulation (TPS) on cognition and brain structure in older adults with mild neurocognitive disorder (NCD) (Supported by Health and Medical Research Fund - Health Bureau)

 Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

  • High-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) as augmentation therapy in late-life depression (LLD) with suboptimal response to treatment - double-blinded randomized sham-controlled trial (Supported by Health and Medical Research Fund - Health Bureau)
  • Developing home tDCS device for mental health (Supported by HKU TEC x HKSTP Ideation Program)
