Overview

Pierre Genton is affiliated with Grenoble Alpes University in France. Their research activity predominantly spans the fields of Medicine and Neuroscience, with specific focus on subfields including Psychiatry and Mental Health, Pediatrics, Perinatology and Child Health, Neurology, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, and Cognitive Neuroscience.

The scientist's work concentrates on several main topics, specifically:

  • Epilepsy research and treatment
  • Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research
  • Pharmacological Effects and Toxicity Studies
  • Neonatal Health and Biochemistry
  • EEG and Brain-Computer Interfaces
  • Glycogen Storage Diseases and Myoclonus
  • Autoimmune Neurological Disorders and Treatments

Their recent publications reflect research interests in neurophysiology and epilepsy-related topics. Selected papers include:

  • How to carry out and interpret EEG recordings in COVID-19 patients in ICU? (2020, Clinical Neurophysiology)
  • Epilepsy with eyelid myoclonias (Jeavons syndrome): An electro-clinical study of 40 patients from childhood to adulthood (2021, Seizure)
  • Lateralized Periodic Discharges: Which patterns are interictal, ictal, or peri-ictal? (2021, Clinical Neurophysiology)
  • Will MRI replace the EEG for the diagnosis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus, especially focal? (2021, Revue Neurologique)
  • Spikes/spike-waves time-locked to the flash frequency during intermittent light stimulation in Jeavons syndrome (2020, Clinical Neurophysiology)

Frequently publishing in journals such as Clinical Neurophysiology, Seizure, Revue Neurologique, Epilepsy & Behavior, and Neurophysiologie Clinique, Genton has contributed multiple articles in these venues over time.

Collaboration is an element of Genton's research profile, working frequently with other scientists including Philippe Gélisse, Arielle Crespel, Annacarmen Nilo, Greta Macorig, and Peter W. Kaplan.
