Abstract
今日有幸於國立臺北護理健康大學（NTUNHS），參加由德州大學阿靈頓分校（The University of Texas at Arlington）心血管健康實驗室主持人——黃玨蓉助理教授（Dr.Chueh-Lung ‘Laura’ Hwang）博士所帶來的專題演講。身為專注於運動與執行功能研究的臺師大（NTNU）博士候選人，我發現黃玨蓉助理教授針對運動、酒精攝取與動脈硬化之間相互作用的研究極具時效性與啟發性。演講深入探討了血管健康與認知功能之間的緊密聯繫，特別是動脈硬化（透過 PWV 測量）如何影響大腦微血管及認知表現。這場交流不僅強化了我對心血管生理學的理解，更為我目前從事的急性運動介入研究提供了跨學科的轉譯視角。
It was a privilege to attend a guest lecture today at National Taipei University of Nursing and Health Sciences (NTUNHS) featuring Dr. Chueh-Lung ‘Laura’ Hwang, PT, Ph.D., from The University of Texas at Arlington. As a Ph.D. candidate at National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU) focusing on exercise and executive function, I found Dr. Hwang’s research into the interaction between exercise, alcohol consumption, and arterial stiffness incredibly timely. The session offered a sophisticated look at the ‘Vascular-Cognitive Link,’ emphasizing how arterial stiffening (measured via PWV) impacts cerebral microvasculature and cognitive health. Connecting with an international researcher leading the Cardiovascular Laboratory of Health at UTA reinforces the importance of cross-disciplinary collaboration in optimizing human health across the lifespan.
