TSE Cho Kwan

I received my BSSc (Hons) in Psychology from Hong Kong Shue Yan University in 2018. I have also studied cognitive neuroscience and nerve injury treatment during my exchanges to the Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand and the University College London Summer School in the United Kingdom.

I am especially interested in understanding how the human brain shapes and changes behaviours. While the neural mechanisms of brain training remain unknown, neuroscience research has offered an appropriate tool to uncover the obscure part of the human brain. PolyU offers top-notch, professional resources to me for implementing my proposed research, while the vision of RS matches my own research visions, which are to provide care to and create a positive impact on our society.

My research interests centre around cognitive training and rehabilitation, executive functions and ageing population, and cognitive and computational neuroscience. My current research aims to investigate the neural mechanism of brain plasticity induced by cognitive training. The findings could facilitate a better understanding of how the brain restores impaired functions. Considering the challenges brought by population ageing, my research also aims to promote quality of life and functional independence in older adults. Ultimately, it will make theoretical and practical contributions to the field of healthy ageing by providing scientific evidence and pragmatic implications.
