The CUHK Brain Health Longitudinal Study is a long-term research project that follows people over many years to understand brain health and neurological conditions. Researchers will collect information about your medical history, symptoms, and quality of life through questionnaires and regular check-ins. The goal is to learn more about how to prevent, detect, and treat brain diseases like stroke, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease.
Many brain diseases like stroke and dementia are serious health problems that affect millions of people. By following people over time—including those who are healthy, those at higher risk, and those already diagnosed—researchers can better understand how these conditions develop and find ways to prevent or slow them down.

If you join, you'll start by completing a detailed questionnaire about your quality of life, mood, thinking, and physical function—either in person at the research center in Hong Kong or at a community center. Then you'll meet with a doctor or study coordinator who will review your medical history and discuss any concerns. After that, you'll be contacted every 6 months (either by phone or in-person visit) to complete the same questionnaire again and allow researchers to track how you're doing over time. The study will continue to follow you for as long as you're willing to participate.
