About

Dr. Min Young Chun is a leading researcher in cognitive rehabilitation and geriatric neurology, with a primary focus on developing accessible, technology-driven interventions for individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Her most cited work, a 2020 pilot randomized controlled trial, introduced a four-week, home-based robot cognitive intervention for MCI patients—a pioneering approach that moves beyond traditional group-based therapy. This study demonstrated that robotic systems can effectively deliver personalized cognitive training in the home environment, addressing a critical gap in dementia prevention by improving accessibility and adherence. With 21 citations, this paper has influenced the design of scalable, non-pharmacological interventions for early cognitive decline. Dr. Chun’s research emphasizes the intersection of robotics, home healthcare, and neuropsychology, aiming to delay dementia onset through practical, patient-centered solutions. Her work is particularly notable for shifting cognitive intervention from clinical settings to everyday life, making therapy more inclusive for patients who struggle with group sessions. By integrating technology with evidence-based rehabilitation, Dr. Chun is shaping the future of remote cognitive care and empowering patients to maintain independence longer.
