Lab Introduction & Major Research Interests
The current research focuses on neurocognitive disturbances in neuro-oncology. Our previous study revealed the neurocognitive parameters of pituitary tumor patients and the change of cognitive function following surgery. We are further exploring the relationship between endocrine dysfunction and neuropsychiatric disturbance. We are also studying medulloblastoma, a common malignant pediatric brain tumor, which novel molecular markers has been shown to correlate with patient outcome.
