On August 21, 2025, seven HK Brain Bee finalists paid a visit to the CUHK School of Biomedical Sciences at the Lo Kwee-Seong Integrated Biomedical Sciences Building. Led by Prof. Ke Ya and Prof. Yung Wing-ho, the research team enlightened students on the holistic perspectives of cognitive neuroscience. In-vivo experiments on mice and rodents utilized neuroanatomical, neurophysiological, behavioural, and computational approaches to better understand the neural mechanisms that underpin the social behaviour, attention, and learning in relation to aging and mental health.

Brain Bee腦神經科學大賽決賽學生參訪香港中文大學生物醫學學院
二零二五年八月廿一日，七位香港Brain Bee腦神經科學大賽決賽學生造訪香港中文大學生物醫學學院 羅桂祥綜合生物醫學大樓。在柯亞教授與容永豪教授的引領下，研究團隊為學生闡述認知神經科學的整體研究視野。透過對小鼠與囓齒類動物進行的活體實驗，研究結合神經解剖學、神經生理學、行為學及計算科學等方法，深入探討改變社會行為、注意力及學習能力的神經機制，並剖析這些機制與衰老過程及精神健康的關聯。
