- Overview
-
My research focuses on the application of multi-modality functional neuroimaging methods, which link abnormalities of neurological function to demonstrable alterations of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, and thereby enhance understanding of neurological disorders in infants, children and young adults with stroke and other brain injuries (e.g., sports concussions), epilepsy and neurodevelopmental disorders. I collaborate with regional, national and international collaborators who seek to evaluate outcomes and enhance neurological care using advanced non-invasive functional neuroimaging methodologies for children.

IPSS Study - International Paediatric Stroke Study
We aim to obtain preliminary data from large multi-center studies assessing sub-types, outcomes and current treatments for newborns and children with stroke. Due to the relative rarity of childhood stoke, sufficient numbers of patients to provide the necessary power can only be achieved with multi-center and multi-national approaches. The overall objective is to develop and conduct clinical trials in childhood stroke.
The specific aims are:
Ascertain in a prospective cohort study, the numbers of newborns and children with ischemic stroke, their stroke sub-types and risk factors, their current treatments and outcomes within the participating centers. These data will provide the rationale and feasibility data for the study group to design and implement the initial RCT’s in paediatric stroke as well as other fundable grant proposals.
Develop and institute standardized protocols for (1) diagnosis, (2) investigation of risk factors, (3) antithrombotic therapies and (4) outcome assessment of neonates and children with arterial ischemic stroke and sinovenous thrombosis
Develop standardized data forms and an appropriate database with web-based data entry from multiple study sites.
Submit successful grant applications for additional funding of IPSS multi-centre studies.
This prospective study enrolls newborns and children with ischemic stroke born at or referred to BC Children’s Hospital. These newborns are then followed at 3 and 12 months post stroke.fMRI Study - Multi-Site Pediatric Network for fMRI Mapping in Childhood Epilepsy
We aim to establish the utility of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) in identifying atypical language in childhood localization related epilepsy, by using a variety of language paradigms that have already been tested in normal children and patients with epilepsy.
The study objectives include:
To establish the network infrastructure for multi-site collection and management of functional imaging data linked to a database of common assessments and measures
To establish the feasibility of conducting multi-site fMRI by identifying patients with atypical language, and to provide pilot data necessary to conduct a large scale study to compare fMRI findings to invasive methods (IAT, ECS, surgical outcome)
To achieve this goals, an imaging consortium with web based access and central data storage will be established. A multi-centre, cross sectional prospective study will use fMRI to study patients undergoing epilepsy surgery. Clinical data will be collected as part of routine evaluation for chronic epilepsy in children considered for epilepsy surgery.Honours & AwardsFarley Fellowship (Children's Hospital, Boston), 1992
