Profile

Research expertise

My current research mainly concerns the cognitive and cerebral effects of different pediatric diseases and syndromes, such as epilepsy, infantile spasms, tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), prematurity and congenital cardiac anomalies. In the laboratory, I use neuropsychological assessment and neuroimaging (optical imaging (NIRS), electroencephalography) and magnetoencephalography (MEG)) to better understand these pathologies and their impact on brain development, identify predictive markers for certain related disorders or developmental prognostics and develop pre-surgical assessment techniques suitable for use with these populations.

Biography

En plus d’être chercheuse au Centre de recherche du CHU Sainte-Justine, la Dre Anne Gallagher est professeure agrégée au Département de psychologie de l’Université de Montréal. Ses intérêts de recherche sont axés sur le développement cognitif et langagier de l’enfant. Plus spécifiquement, son programme de recherche se divise en deux volets: 1) Développement langagier typique au cours de la petite enfance ; 2) Les effets cognitifs et cérébraux de différentes maladies et syndromes pédiatriques, tels que l’épilepsie, les anomalies cardiaques congénitales et la prématurité. Au sein de son laboratoire, le Laboratoire d'Imagerie Optique en Neurodéveloppement (LIONlab), son équipe utilise l’évaluation neuropsychologique et l’imagerie cérébrale, notamment l’imagerie optique (NIRS) et l’électroencéphalographie (EEG), afin de mieux comprendre ces pathologies et leurs effets sur le développement du cerveau, identifier des marqueurs prédictifs du pronostic neurodéveloppemental et développer des techniques d’évaluation pré-chirurgicales pouvant être utilisées auprès de ces populations.
