Olivier Roy

Dr. Olivier Roy is a clinical psychiatrist and researcher affiliated with Laval University, practicing at the Clinique Notre-Dame des Victoires within the CIUSSS de la Capitale-Nationale’s first-episode psychosis treatment program. His work bridges clinical psychiatry and neuroscience, focusing on non-invasive neuromodulation techniques like transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) to address psychiatric conditions such as psychotic disorders, borderline personality disorder, and affective disorders.

• Research Focus: Clinical and Cognitive Neuroscience, with emphasis on personalized therapeutic protocols using neuromodulation.
• Key Areas: Cognitive and affective determinants in psychiatric disorders, structural and functional brain networks, neuroimaging, and neuromodulation mechanisms.

Publications Trends: Analysis of his Google Scholar articles reveals a secondary research focus in cellular biology and ophthalmology, particularly related to corneal endothelial cell function and Fuchs dystrophy. These studies suggest cross-disciplinary expertise in cell culture methodologies and tissue-specific disease modeling.

Labs & Teams: Affiliated with the CERVO Brain Research Centre at Laval University, integrating clinical practice with advanced neuroscience research to optimize psychiatric interventions.
