معرفی
Prof. Dave Ellemberg is a Full Professor at the Université de Montréal, affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine's Department of Kinesiology and Physical Activity Sciences. His research focuses on brain plasticity and post-concussion neurorecovery, particularly in athletes. He leads projects funded by CRSNG and IRSC, exploring concussion effects on cognitive, neurophysiological, and anatomical brain metrics. Ellemberg has supervised numerous Ph.D. and M.Sc. students, addressing topics like concussion disclosure, emotional regulation in athletes, and pediatric brain development. He is a member of key research units, including CERNEC and REPAR. His work bridges clinical and experimental neuroscience, emphasizing translational outcomes for sports safety and injury management.
Education: Ph.D. in neuropsychology from Université de Montréal (2002), postdoctoral training at McGill University. Research highlights include pioneering post-exertion cognitive testing for concussion recovery and investigating gender differences in post-concussion outcomes. He directs the Montréal Neuropsychological Evaluation Clinic for Learning Disorders (http://www.centam.ca/), offering clinical and academic insights into neurodevelopmental challenges.
Grants include leadership roles in multi-year studies on concussion functional outcomes (2016–2026) and visual system plasticity. His affiliations include the Azrieli Research Center at CHU Sainte-Justine. Despite no explicit awards listed, his extensive publications and project leadership reflect significant contributions to sports neuroscience and rehabilitation.
