About
Xiaoqing Feng is a clinical neuroscience researcher whose work centers on neurorehabilitation and non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, with a particular focus on stroke recovery. Feng's most prominent contribution to the field involves investigating the therapeutic potential of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) as a priming intervention for improving upper limb motor function in patients recovering from hemiparetic stroke. This research, published in 2024, addresses a critical gap in stroke rehabilitation by designing a rigorous randomised controlled trial to evaluate how anodal stimulation of the ipsilesional primary motor cortex can promote neuroplasticity and functional recovery in the subacute phase of stroke — a period widely considered optimal for rehabilitation intervention. By developing and publishing a detailed study protocol, Feng contributes not only potential clinical insights but also methodological transparency to the field, enabling reproducibility and broader scientific scrutiny. While still accumulating citations, this work positions Feng as an emerging voice in evidence-based neurorehabilitation research. Students and clinicians interested in brain stimulation therapies and post-stroke motor recovery will find Feng's systematic, protocol-driven approach a valuable model for rigorous clinical investigation in this rapidly evolving field.
