ABCD Research was at WCPCCS 2023!

The ABCD research lab attended the 8th World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery in Washington, D.C. this August. This international conference brought together over 5,000 clinicians, researchers, patients, and parents to meet and discuss the latest research and advancements in pediatric and congenital heart disease.

At the conference, Fatima Abboud, a recent ABCD research MSc graduate, presented both a poster and an oral abstract on the Cortical Correlates of Executive Functions in Adolescents and Young Adults with Congenital Heart Defects. Great work Fatima. Wishing you the best in your future endeavours :)

ABCD Research was at OHBM 2023!

Our lab members attended and presented at the Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM) Meeting held in July in Montreal! This international conference is dedicated to using neuroimaging techniques to discover the organization of the human brain.

Two of our MSc students, Camille Héguy and Fatima Abboud, volunteered to help the conference run smoothly. Sarah Palmis, a postdoctoral fellow, was selected to present a poster entitled “Cerebellar volumes are altered in youth born preterm or with congenital heart disease.” See you next year for OHBM 2024 in Seoul, South Korea!
