DESCRIPTION:Title: Are psychostimulants affecting children's hippocampal de
 velopment and function? \n\nPresenter:\n	Dr. Sherif Karama is a medical doc
 tor (Université de Montréal) and ɬÀï·¬-trained general psychiatrist with 
 research training in brain imaging and genetics. He obtained a PhD in Neur
 oscience (Université de Montréal) and pursued graduate studies in neuropsy
 chology at Harvard University for 12 months as an invited scholar. After h
 is psychiatry residency\, he completed a five-year postdoctoral fellowship
  in Brain Imaging of cognitive ability differences at the Montreal Neurolo
 gical Institute. He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychia
 try at ɬÀï·¬. His work aims to understand the neurobiology of cognitive a
 bility differences and changes across the lifespan. Within this framework\
 , he is interested by the impacts of exogenous and endogenous factors on s
 haping brain development and their corollary consequences on cognitive abi
 lity. Dr. Karama is based at the Douglas Mental Health University Institut
 e.\n\n\n	Learning Objectives:\n\n1. Learn about studies that have shown tha
 t long-term psychostimulant use may harm hippocampus functioning in rodent
 s\n\n2. Learn about a recent cross-sectional study showing a negative asso
 ciation between cumulative psychostimulant use and hippocampal volume\n\n3
 . Learn about the new longitudinal study on potential impacts of long-term
  psychostimulant use on hippocampal development in children and adolescent
 s\n\nThe Child Psychiatry Research Committee is sponsoring a Child Psychia
 try Research Seminar. This seminar is open to all staff and students. The 
 seminar will be informal and encourage active audience participation and d
 iscussion. This seminar will be held by Zoom.\n\n\n	Meeting ID: 624 5579 80
