Overview

Edouard Hirsch is a researcher affiliated with the University of Strasbourg in France, with a primary focus on the fields of Medicine, Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, and Neuroscience. Their body of work includes substantial contributions to psychiatry and mental health, genetics, pediatrics, perinatology and child health, neurology, and cellular and molecular neuroscience.

The research topics addressed by Edouard Hirsch encompass epilepsy research and treatment, genetics and neurodevelopmental disorders, genomics and rare diseases, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, pharmacological effects and toxicity studies, neonatal and fetal brain pathology, and neurological disorders and treatments.

Recent publications feature papers primarily in the journal Epilepsia, presenting extensive work on epilepsy syndromes and classification as part of task forces. Notable papers published in 2022 include:

  • International League Against Epilepsy classification and definition of epilepsy syndromes with onset in childhood: Position paper by the ILAE Task Force on Nosology and Definitions, published in Epilepsia
  • ILAE classification and definition of epilepsy syndromes with onset in neonates and infants: Position statement by the ILAE Task Force on Nosology and Definitions, published in Epilepsia
  • ILAE definition of the Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy Syndromes: Position statement by the ILAE Task Force on Nosology and Definitions, published in Epilepsia
  • Methodology for classification and definition of epilepsy syndromes with list of syndromes: Report of the ILAE Task Force on Nosology and Definitions, published in Epilepsia
  • International League Against Epilepsy classification and definition of epilepsy syndromes with onset at a variable age: position statement by the ILAE Task Force on Nosology and Definitions, published in Epilepsia
