Guillaume Emeriaud

Guillaume Emeriaud is a Professor at the Université de Montréal's Faculté de médecine (Department of Pediatrics), affiliated with the Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine (CHU Sainte-Justine). He specializes in pediatric critical care, focusing on mechanical ventilation, patient-ventilator interactions, traumatic brain injury, and neuro-monitoring. He holds an MD from Université Joseph Fourier, Grenoble (2001).

His research addresses pediatric intensive care challenges such as optimizing ventilation strategies (NAVA), managing bronchiolitis, and improving outcomes for traumatic brain injury patients. He leads/co-leads multiple grants, including a 2022–2026 project on AI-driven pediatric acute care and a 2021–2026 clinical trial on prone positioning for pediatric respiratory issues.

Key projects include developing clinical decision support systems for TBI management and investigating biomarkers for pediatric ARDS. His work spans 20+ grants since 2011, with funding from FRQS, NIH, and IRSC. He supervises doctoral and master's students on topics like ventilator liberation, diaphragmatic function, and transfusion practices.

Emeriaud's interdisciplinary teams collaborate across North America, focusing on translational research to bridge clinical care and innovation. His lab employs advanced data analytics and physiological modeling to enhance pediatric critical care outcomes.
