Author Information

Andrea Bernasconi M.D. is Professor of Neurology and epileptologist, and Professor in the Integrated Program in Neuroscience at McGill University. He is founding Director of the Neuroimaging of Epilepsy Laboratory, one of the core labs of the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre at the Montreal Neurologiocal Institute, Montreal, Canada. His research focuses on neuroimaging of malformations of cortical development, particularly the design of computerized MRI analysis methods to automatically model pathological brain morphology. Neda Bernasconi, M.D. is Professor in the Integrated Program in Neuroscience at McGill University and co-Director of the Neuroimaging of Epilepsy Laboratory at the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre of the Neurological Institute, McGill University, Montreal, Canada. She is a world-renowned expert in advanced imaging of seizure disorders, particularly those related to the limbic system. The goal of her research is to develop cutting-edge neuroimaging methods and combine them with statistical learning in search for epilepsy biomarkers. Matthias Koepp M.D. is Professor of Neurology at the University College London, Institute of Neurology and Consultant Neurologist at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London. He takes a particular interest in generalized epilepsies, epilepsy and co-morbidities (depression). His research is focused on mechanisms of initiation and termination of epileptic seizures, using molecular and functional imaging methods. In particular, his work aims to clarify, experimentally and clinically, the mechanisms, causes and associations of cerebral damage consequent upon epileptic seizures and epilepsy.
