Advances in imaging for children with neuromuscular disorders

The new season of Brain Talks focuses on Brain in the Life Course, kicking off with a focus on pediatric neurology. We are joined by guest Dr David Gómez-Andrés, a specialist in Child Neurology at the University Hospital of Vall d’Hebron in Barcelona and part of the European Paediatric Neurology Society (EPNS), a society for physicians with a research or clinical interest in Paediatric Neurology.Dr Gómez-Andrés was awarded the 2021 EPNS Research Prize by the Neuromuscular Working Group for his work on ‘Pattern Recognition Muscle MRI in Early Onset Muscle Disorders: From Previous Works to Future Plans’. David reported: ‘My plan is to use the award to continue the project of machine learning and data representation in muscle imaging. Probably, we will join this to other sources for hiring a young child neurologist to help us in this project and other ones we have ongoing.’We also welcomed Professor Thomas Sejersen, a senior consultant and lecturer at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm and a Board Member of the EPNS, as a co-discussant.Discover more on https://www.epns.info/ and https://www.braininnovationdays.eu
