Clinical studies indicate that damage to the frontal lobes may result in deficits in performing multitasking tests in experimental conditions and is most probably associated with subjectivecomplaints of performing simultaneous tasks in everyday life scenarios. Most recently, somemore ecologically valid tests of multitasking have been developed, namely the Six ElementsTest, the Hotel Test, and the Greenwich Test. As yet, very few researches have been conducted to explore theconstruct of these tests. The purpose of this seminar aims to examine the construct validityand clinical utility of three multitasking tests within a group of healthy subjects and clinicalcases.

All living organisms have an inherent capacity and ability to self-organize throughoutlife, and organizational processes affecting all systems are reflective of the organism's history(including experience and use). Following an acute brain lesion, ischemic, traumatic, orhypoxic, those individuals who do not die begin to demonstrate behavioral recovery, and theunderlying biological manifestations of recovery reflect the inherent reorganization ability of the central nervous system. The concept of the brain as plastic and adaptable is nowadaysaccepted in the clinical community. Many studies have demonstrated chemical and anatomicplasticity in the cerebral cortex of adult animals. Animals reared or housed as adults incomplex environments with access to various toys and activities develop more dendriticbranching and more,synapses per neuron and have higher gene expression for trophicfactors than animals housed individually or m small groups in standard cages.

ny trauma surgeries and reconstructive surgeries involve re-establishment of a bone-tendon(B-T) junction, such as direct repair for patellar-tendon-patella or indirect B-T repair bycreating a tunnel such as using patellar graft for ACL reconstruction (Hung et al. 1993, Chanet al. 2000a,b). But direct B-T junction repair is slow due to poor regenerative capability of itsinsertion fibrocartilage zone (Qin et al. 1999, Leung et al. 2002, Wong et al. 2003). Theimmobilization period is also long and the adverse effects on the affected musculoskeletaltissues are obvious (Qin et al. 1997, Leung et al. 1999). How to accelerate or enhance the B-Tjunction repair therefore becomes a focus of our musculoskeletal research laboratory, withinitiation of Prof. KS Leung in early 90th of last century.
