Overview Research Dr. Le Pichon's research interests are broad but currently focus in two general areas of child neurology. The first area is concerned with bilirubin metabolism and toxicity in the infant. This work has resulted from a close collaboration with Dr. Steven Shapiro. Acute bilirubin encephalopathy offers an ideal disease model to study a unique form of choreoathetoid cerebral palsy in that the initial insult and its subsequent consequences are fairly well understood and affect relatively few and constant brain regions. Furthermore, while the disease is relatively well controlled in developed countries (with an incidence comparable to many rare genetic disorders), it remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in low and middle income countries.
Dr. Le Pichon also has a strong interest in developing fair and equitable modes of delivering medical care. This has been the force behind a major effort at improving the care of children and youth with epilepsy in underserved and rural areas.
H98MC33239 (J.B. Le Pichon & Ahmed Abdelmoity)Sep 1, 2019 - Aug 31, 2023 HRSA Reaching out for Epilepsy in Adolescents and Children through Telemedicine (REACT) Role Description: This project is a quality improvement project designed to create a medical home for children and youth with epilepsy in the State of Kansas. To achieve this goal the projects combines telemedicine and improved education for primary care physicians, patients and their families as well as improved detection and treatment of mental health issues common to this patient population and improved transition of care when the children reach adulthood.
