Ken Myers (Canada)

Paediatric neurologist clinician-scientist and assistant professor

I am a paediatric neurologist clinician-scientist and assistant professor at Montreal Children’s Hospital, affiliated with McGill University. I specialize in epilepsy and my research largely involves rare disease clinical trials and phenotyping genetic causes of epilepsy. My interest in ring 20 comes largely from a research project I conducted several years ago, using RNA sequencing to explore the alterations in gene expression in patients with ring 20.
