Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Charles M. Glasier's research focuses on the intersection of maternal health during pregnancy and neonatal neurodevelopment, as well as the radiological evaluation of pediatric conditions. He has investigated the impact of maternal physical activity, depressive symptoms, diet quality, and anxiety levels on various aspects of newborn brain development, including cortical development, functional connectivity, and white matter microstructure. His work also extends to examining the associations between white matter microstructures and cognitive functioning in older children.

In addition to his work on maternal and child neurodevelopment, Glasier's research includes clinical and radiological evaluations of specific pediatric conditions, such as caudal regression syndrome. He also studies the utility of specific imaging sequences, like balanced steady-state free precession, in the evaluation of injuries in patients with abusive head trauma. Glasier leads a research group and has a notable publication record, with 147 total publications and a h-index of 36, accumulating over 3,487 citations. His collaborations include extensive work with Xiawei Ou and Xiaoxu Na at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
