Executive Summary:
Dr. Lu graduated from China Medical University and received neurological resident training in China Medical University Hospital (CMUH), Taichung, Taiwan. In addition to the clinical practice experience, he also pursued his research training focusing on clinical neurophysiology. His research interests include pathophysiology of movement disorders and noninvasive neuromodulation. He applied EEG, TMS and MR-guided focused ultrasound to investigate and monitor neurodegenerative disorders, focusing on Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor. He has some publications regarding this field. He is currently a faculty of College of Medicine in CMU and an active member of Taiwan Society of Clinical Neurophysiology and Taiwan Movement Disorder Society.

Executive Summary:
Dr. Tsai was the attending neurologist (1990-2000) and Associate Professor (1995-2000) of the Movement Disorders Center at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taiwan, and the research fellow of movement disorders and electrophysiology in 1996(July to December) at Royal Adelaide Hospital, Australia, shadowed by Prof. PD Thompson. He has been a member of the Movement Disorder Society since 1997. He has published 129 refereed papers in the field of movement disorders and electrophysiology. He was the director of the Department of Neurology, China Medical University Hospital, Taiwan, from 2000 to April 2025. In 2006, he was promoted to Professor of Neurology at the China Medical University Hospital, Taiwan. In March 2019, he was elected to be the Dean of the College of Medicine, China Medical University, Taiwan. His pivotal interests are in the neurophysiology of Parkinson's disease, myoclonus, tremor, human motor control, and gait. Recently, he also extended his interest to stem cell and MR-guided focused ultrasound therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. He was the president of the Taiwan Movement Disorder Society (March 2017-March 2019) and a member of the Taiwan Clinical Neurophysiology Society Council. In addition, he was the Executive Committee member of the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society-Asian Oceanian Section from 2017 to 2021. He dedicated most of his time to education, clinical service, and research on movement disorders and clinical neurophysiology.
