Exploring the Essential Features of “Jerome Quellier – Predicting Patient Behavior by Brain Lesion Site”
As patients survive increasingly complex head trauma, stroke, and various encephalopathies, there is a pressing need for practitioners to have advanced knowledge of the underlying anatomical structures that mediate behavior. Understanding the roles of the frontal lobes, hippocampus, the differences between bilateral temporal lobes, and the optic system will assist the clinician in not only predicting a patient’s cognitive dysfunction, but also guide assessment and intervention. This recording is designed to quickly review gross brain anatomy and the physiological processes that mediate self-regulation, executive functions, visual perception, and memory.
Speaker
Jerome Quellier, MS, CCC-SLP
Jerome Quellier, MS, CCC-SLP, is a specialist in tracheostomy/vent management and traumatic brain injury at a 500+ bed level 1 trauma hospital in Saint Paul, MN. He has accumulated 27+ years of acute, residential, and outpatient rehabilitation experience. During his tenure at the hospital, he has focused on neuro-based diagnostics and intervention for cognitive-linguistic deficits, dysphagia, head and neck cancer management, and patient advocacy. Mr. Quellier has completed advanced training in brain dissection at Marquette University, is a member of a neurosurgery team focused on preserving linguistic & speech function during “wake” craniotomies, and has shared his expertise with interdisciplinary audiences around the country for over a decade.
