Dementia prevalence is expected to triple worldwide over the next 40 years at tremendous monetary and emotional cost. Dr. Chao’s research seeks to identifying risk factors for cognitive impairment and dementia in older adults, particularly older Veterans; and to evaluate interventions that delay onset or slow progression of cognitive impairment and dementia. She has a specific interest utilizing transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) to promote neuroplasticity and neuromodulation for brain recovery in neurodegenerative diseases.
