Our mission is to develop methods that can improve human intelligence through integrating knowledge from different fields. Neuroimaging and behavioral analyses enable us to study the mechanisms of our mind and cognition, focusing more on how diseases, aging, and injuries affect the brain. We integrate technologies from various areas such as medicine, cognition and mind sciences, consulting psychology, and engineering , to repair brain damage and to further develop cognitive potentials.
Continuing Education
We offer programs like the Program of Speech & Language Therapy and Cognitive Training for the Middle-aged and Elderly. Certificates are awarded upon completion of the courses. In addition, we also have courses related to art therapy and psychological counselling in collaboration with Taiwan Art Therapy Association (TATA) and Dowd's Love Counselling Center.
Services
Social Welfare Seminars
We invite scholars, medical experts, and government officials to have conversations with the public regarding health and wellness issues and the latest scientific developments.
Social support
Preliminary cognition screenings and tests are crucial for later course arrangements. Our courses consist of somatosensory games, reading, physical exercise and memory training. Anyone who has cognitive difficulties or neurodegenerative diseases is welcome to join the course.
Public health and mental wellbeing
Our center is always keeping up with the latest verified cognitive rehabilitation game training, and we customize the courses to suit our local situation. We strive to educate the public on dementia prevention and seek to share scientific knowledge and cognitive protection with older people. Our targeted research and service groups include adults who would like to prevent neurodegenerative diseases, stroke patients, the elderly, and people with brain injuries or mild cognitive difficulties. NMR spectrometer, electroencephalograph (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) are some of the equipment that used to trace brain activity.
