Bin Hu
Professor of Translational Neuroscience, University of Calgary
Dr. Bin Hu is MD. Ph.D. neuroscientist and an endowed professor for Parkinson's disease research, Department of Clinical Neurosciences and Hotchkiss Brain Institute, Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary. He has received many domestic and international awards and recognitions for his scholar work on brain networks of auditory learning and memory, language comprehension and music perception.
He was the founding head of Division of Translational Neuroscience and leader of two large translational research teams which developed innovative non-pharmaceutical therapeutics for Parkinson's disease known as Ambulosono Project.
The scientific premise of Ambulosono is that human brain has primitive but potent neural structures that can utilize sound, such as motivational music, to trigger movements. Although these structures remain relatively intact in Parkinson's disease, patients need to undertake specialized brain training to condition music cues for initiating desired movements. Ambulosono Project has now been implemented in 12 sites in 6 countries, helping many patients in their quality of life.
胡滨
卡尔加里大学临床神经科学教授
胡滨是转化神经科学家,卡尔加里大学卡明医学院临床神经科学系和霍奇基斯脑科学研究所帕金森病研究特聘教授。他在听觉学习记忆、语言理解和音乐感知的大脑网络方面的研究工作获得了许多国内外奖项和认可。
他是转化神经科学部门的创始人和两个大型转化研究团队的领导者,这两个团队为帕金森病研究开发了创新型非药物疗法——步歌疗法。
步歌疗法的科学前提是人类大脑有原始但强大的神经结构,可以利用声音来刺激并触发动作。尽管帕金森氏症患者的脑部结构相对完整,但患者需要采取专门的大脑训练结合音乐的线索,进行所需的动作。步歌疗法项目现已在6个国家的12个地点实施,以帮助许多患者提高生活质量。
