Dr. Hsieh's lab specializes in extensive database analysis, including large-scale cohort database, national registries, enabling in-depth exploration into the potential impact of risk assessment, cardiovascular epidemiology, and molecular and genetic epidemiology. In addition, Dr. Hsieh's research is at the forefront of applying epidemiological methodologies combined with cutting-edge technologies to discover novel biomarkers of complex processes of adverse stroke outcomes. By revealing these key risk factors and identifying relevant biomarkers, our study profoundly improves our understanding of the adverse consequences of stroke and enables the identification of high-risk individuals. We are particularly focused on utilizing these important biomarkers to develop risk prediction models for adverse stroke prognosis.
Determinants and Prognostic Factors of stroke unfavorable outcomes / neurodegenerative diseases
