Dr. Kenneth Alexis Myers, MD PhD FRCPC, CSCN, Assistant Professor
I am a clinician-scientist pediatric neurologist and epileptologist practicing at the Montreal Children’s Hospital since 2017. Born and raised in Kingston, Ontario, I did my undergraduate degree in Physics & Physiology at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, British Columbia, after which I moved to Alberta where I completed an MD/PhD and subsequent Pediatric Neurology Residency at the University of Calgary. After my residency I moved to Melbourne, Australia for a 2-year epilepsy fellowship under the supervision of Profs. Ingrid Scheffer and Samuel Berkovic. I love working with children with epilepsy and their families, and am very excited whenever I see our research leading to improved seizure control and overall quality of life.

Karina Pallioti, Ms.Sc, MD Student
I graduated from my Bachelor of Science from McGill University in Honors Anatomy and Cell Biology in 2019. I am currently completing my Master of Science from McGill University in Integrated Program in Neuroscience, expected graduation in 2022. My thesis research project, supervised by Dr. Myers, focuses on a neurodevelopmental disorder known as Periventricular Nodular Heterotopia (PVNH), where I will be evaluating the epilepsy phenotypic spectrum, clinical features and underlying genetic causes of the disorder.
