The disorders and disabilities volume focuses on disorders of intellectual abilities, language, learning memory as well as psychiatric developmental disorders. The developmental aspects of neurological diseases in children is also covered. Chapters discuss when and how these disorders develop, the genetics and neurophysiology of their operation, and their evaluation and assessment in clinical practice. Assessment, treatment, and long-term outcome are provided as well as advances in methods and tools for assessment.
This book will serve as a comprehensive reference to researchers in cognitive development in neuroscience, psychology, and medicine, as well as to clinicians and allied health professionals focused on developmental disabilities (child neurologists, pediatric neuropsychologists, child psychiatrists, speech and language therapists, and occupational therapists.)

Anne Gallagher
Dr. Anne Gallagher, pediatric neuropsychologist, holds a Canada Research Chair in Child Neuropsychology and Brain Imaging. She is an Associate Professor at the Université de Montréal and the head of the Neurodevelopmental Optical Imaging Lab (LIONlab) at CHU Sainte-Justine. She conducts translational and interdisciplinary research work on language development and multimodal neuroimaging aiming to improve neurodevelopmental outcomes of infants and children born prematurely or with various clinical conditions including epilepsy and congenital heart disease. Using NIRS-EEG, her research has pioneered the development of innovative presurgical imaging techniques that are now routinely used in young patients.

Christine Bulteau
Dr. Christine BULTEAU-PEYRIE is pediatric neurologist and child neuropsychologist and associated member at the Memory, Brain and Cognition Laboratory (MC2Lab, EA 7536), Institute of Psychology Sorbonne Paris Cité University, France. She graduated in 1991 as Pediatrican with Honors after which she moved to Paris and did a residency in Pediatric Neurology with Pr Olivier DULAC at Saint Vincent de Paul hospital, Paris Descartes University. During her neuropediatric training she made clinical research in childhood epilepsy (Pr DULAC, Dr CHIRON), child neuropsychology (Pr JAMBAQUE) and child psychiatry (Pr MARCELLI). She obtained a Master Degree in Cognitive Sciences from the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS/Paris) and a PhD in Cognitive Psychology at the Institute of Psychology, Paris Descartes University. Since 2000, she is working at Rothschild Foundation Hospital in Paris in the pediatric neurosurgery department and she is head of the comprehensive program for neuropsychological assessment in pediatric epilepsy surgery. Her research activity is about the patients who are candidate for hemispherotomy. Since 2003, she has worked actively in the pediatric epilepsy surgery task force (ILAE) and was member of the Commission Surgical Therapy (ILAE: 2013-2017) and participate to national training in childhod epilepsy and child neuropsychology as well as international training in pediatric epilepsy surgery.
