ABCD Research was at CPRME 2023!

On October 19th-20th, 2023, our lab attended the Provincial Mother-Child Research conference, held at the RI-MUHC. The conference reunited researchers of all levels from the four major pediatric research centers in Quebec.

Camille, a second-year MSc student in the lab, presented an oral abstract of her work “Do neonatal respiratory morbidities alter hippocampal development in preterm-born infants?” and won the award for the best oral presentation of the cardiorespiratory session. Congratulations!

Strength in diversity!

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 :)
