HiLIFE webinar / Viikki Monday Seminar John J. Foxe

The hunt for translatable cross-species electrophysiological endophenotypes (neuromarkers) in rare monogenic neurodevelopmental disabilities

John Foxe is an Irish Neuroscientist with a history of basic research studies into the neurophysiology of multisensory integration and attention.  He works to translate new understanding generated in his basic research program to advance understanding of the neuropathology underlying a number of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric conditions. Special emphasis is placed on the identification of endophenotypes (neuromarkers) of disease, in linking these biomarkers to the underlying genotype, and in associating these markers with clinical manifestations. He has worked extensively in neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism, Rett Syndrome, and other rare diseases of neurodevelopment, successfully gathering large-scale neuroimaging and neurophysiological datasets from these vulnerable and often difficult-to-test populations.  He is Editor-in-Chief of The European Journal of Neuroscience, the official journal of the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS). He has published over 340 peer-reviewed papers (H-Index = 102).
