Biography
Miriam Beauchamp, PhD is a neuropsychologist, Full professor in the Department of Psychology at the Université de Montréal and Head of the Brain & Development Axis at the Sainte-Justine Hospital Azrieli Research Center. She holds the Canada Research Chair in Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). With her research group of 25 members (ABCs Laboratory, https://abcs.umontreal.ca/), she conducts clinical research projects aimed at better understanding the diagnosis, prognosis and consequences of pediatric TBI and concussion, as well as validating intervention and prevention programs. Her research at the crossroads of social neuroscience and neuropsychology also contribute to the development of new assessment and intervention methods in social cognition, including dynamic, immersive technologies such as virtual reality and serious video games. These efforts have led to over 200 publications, numerous knowledge transfer initiatives for the general public, and the validation of several neuropsychological measures.
In 2017, she received the Prix du Québec “Relève scientifique”, the highest distinction awarded by the Quebec government for an early career scientist. She has received Early Career Awards from the International Neuropsychological Society (2015) and the International Brain Injury Association (2017). In 2019, she was named to the Royal Society of Canada's College of New Researchers and Creators in Arts and Science, she was awarded the Quebec-Belgium Research Chair, and received the Expertise & Compétence award at the CHU Sainte-Justine recognition gala.
