We are pleased to introduce Professor Tsong-Hai Lee from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taiwan, as our esteemed speaker. Professor Lee holds the position of Professor of Neurology at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Linkou Medical Center. With a wealth of experience and expertise in the field of neurology, he has made significant contributions to stroke research and clinical practice.

🎓 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐫 𝐓𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐠-𝐇𝐚𝐢 𝐋𝐞𝐞: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Neurology, Taiwan

📚 𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐲:
Professor Tsong-Hai Lee's clinical and research work primarily focuses on stroke, including stroke risk factors, stroke genetics, and stroke outcome in both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. He has served as the president of the Taiwan Stroke Society and has been actively involved in stroke-related conferences and research activities. As the principal investigator of the Stroke Registry in Chang-Gung Healthcare System (SRICHS), Professor Lee has contributed to understanding and improving stroke management and treatment.

In his abstract titled "Dynamic Change of Cerebral Function after Carotid Intervention," Professor Lee addresses the significance of carotid intervention, including carotid stenting and endarterectomy, as an effective treatment for symptomatic carotid artery stenosis (CAS). He presents the findings from a study investigating the temporal change of cerebral function before and after carotid intervention.

The research involved various imaging modalities such as carotid ultrasound, brain magnetic resonance imaging and angiography (MRI/A), brain computed tomographic perfusion (CTP), and positron emission tomography (PET). The study revealed several important observations. These included the presence of amyloid deposition in the stenotic hemisphere, highlighting the potential role of amyloid plaque in vascular dementia. The study also demonstrated changes in cerebral vasoreactivity, cerebral blood flow, and carotid hemodynamics following carotid intervention.

Furthermore, the research explored functional connectivity alterations and their association with cognitive performance. The findings suggested that hyper-connectivity may serve as a compensatory mechanism in response to neural challenges. Additionally, the study examined the dynamic changes in collateral flow and the plasticity of the circle of Willis after carotid intervention.

Overall, the research presented by Professor Lee emphasizes the importance of carotid intervention in improving cerebral function and outcomes in patients with carotid artery stenosis.

We are delighted to introduce Dr. Nguyen Trong Kien from the Faculty of Electronics Engineering at the Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology in Vietnam. Dr. Kien's expertise lies in the field of electrophysiological signal processing, biomedical engineering instrumentation, and the human visual system.

🎓 𝐃𝐫 𝐍𝐠𝐮𝐲𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐊𝐢𝐞𝐧: Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology, Faculty of Electronics Engineering, Vietnam

📚 𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐲:
Dr. Kien's field of specialty includes electrophysiological signal processing, biomedical engineering instrumentation, and the human visual system. He has expertise in various techniques such as noise cancellation, frequency analysis using fast Fourier transform, wavelet analysis, Hilbert-Huang transform, and Holo-Hilbert spectral analysis.

In his abstract titled "Holo-Hilbert Spectrum Analysis for Analyzing Complex Signals," Dr. Kien presents an alternative approach to analyzing complex signals that traditional Fourier-based methods often struggle with. The Holo-Hilbert Spectrum (HHS) analysis, based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and Hilbert transform, offers a comprehensive two-dimensional frequency representation for complex signals, particularly in biomedical applications.

The advantage of EMD is its ability to decompose complex signals into single modes called intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). When combined with Hilbert transform, this leads to the extraction of carrier frequency information, known as Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT). The HHS analysis extends this approach by extracting the amplitude modulation feature from each IMF, providing a full-dimensional frequency spectrum that includes both carrier and amplitude modulation features.

Dr. Kien highlights the advantages of HHS analysis over traditional Fourier-based methods, emphasizing its ability to preserve physical properties of the signal and extract meaningful information from complex waveforms. He showcases successful applications of HHS analysis, including detecting nonlinear components in steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) and accurately determining respiratory rates from wrist photoplethysmogram signals.

Through examples using simulated and real data, Dr. Kien demonstrates the efficacy of HHS analysis in various applications, such as speech processing, medical diagnosis, and brain-computer interfaces. The technique's ability to overcome the limitations of traditional methods makes it a valuable tool in understanding and analyzing complex signals.

📆 Save the date and make sure to attend this enlightening session! Join us to learn from Dr. Nguyen Trong Kien's expertise in Holo-Hilbert Spectrum Analysis and its applications in analyzing complex signals.

Her expertise extends to experiment design, literature review, and data interpretation. She has successfully managed multiple projects, delivering significant outcomes. Dr. Dixit is known for her quick learning abilities and excellent troubleshooting skills. Her contributions to the field have earned her the prestigious Early Career Award from the International Brain Research Organization (IBRO).

During her presentation, Dr. Dixit will discuss her groundbreaking research on the sensory perception of aversive odor and its impact on the lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans, a widely used model organism for studying aging. The nervous system plays a crucial role in processing environmental cues, thereby influencing aging and longevity. Through her research, Dr. Dixit aims to investigate the neuronal regulation of odor-dependent modulation of aging in C. elegans. Her findings reveal that exposure to aversive odors reduces the lifespan and feeding rate of the worms. Furthermore, the effects of aversive odor are absent in worms lacking functional olfactory sensory neurons. These results suggest that the neuronal perception of aversive odorants in the environment may lead to reduced appetite and, consequently, decreased longevity in animals.
