Research Interests

I am a full-time PhD student in the Division of Psychiatry, supervised by Professor Gill Livingston, Doctor Naaheed Mukadam and Professor Narinder Kapur. My PhD started in April 2019 and is funded by Ministry of Education of Taiwan. My research aims at conducting a systematic review with a focus on the cognitive assessments used in diagnosing patients with (suspected) dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in Chinese-speaking populations. Basing on the results of systematic review, I will validate a couple of cognitive assessments that have not been fully validated or applied in Taiwan.
