About

Dr. Fabrice Wallois is a leading figure in the field of functional neuroimaging, with a particular focus on the development and clinical application of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for studying the developing brain. His key research areas encompass neonatal neurology, cerebral hemodynamics, and the integration of NIRS with electroencephalography (EEG). Dr. Wallois’s major contributions lie in rigorously characterizing the spatial sensitivity of NIRS, as demonstrated in his highly cited 2011 paper (57 citations), which directly addressed critical uncertainties about the origin of NIRS signals. This foundational work has been instrumental in advancing the clinical interpretation of NIRS data, paving the way for its use in monitoring brain function in vulnerable populations. His research has profoundly impacted our understanding of cerebral oxygenation and hemodynamic changes in infants, with his work collectively garnering over 2,000 citations. Notably, Dr. Wallois has been a pioneer in combining NIRS with EEG to create multimodal monitoring systems, offering unprecedented insights into neonatal brain activity and pathology. His achievements have established him as a key authority in non-invasive brain monitoring, shaping both clinical practice and future research directions in pediatric neurology.
