Capturing Autobiographical Memory Formation in Real World Spaces Using Multimodal Recordings
The goal of this observational study is to develop novel methods for integrating multimodal data streams with invasive neural recordings to study autobiographical memory (AM) formation in individuals with implanted neurostimulation devices (e.g., NeuroPace RNS) for epilepsy treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: How does the brain …
Sleep Spindles and Memory in Rolandic Epilepsy
The investigators are recruiting children with Rolandic epilepsy and children without epilepsy (aged 4 years old and above) for a non-invasive brain imaging study using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Magnetoencephalography/Electroencephalography (MEG/EEG), and experimental tasks. The investigators hope to determine the brain circuits and brain rhythms affected in these children and …
MEG Versus EEG HR for the Localization of the Epileptogenic Zone As Part of the Pre-surgical Assessment of Epilepsy
Drug-resistant partial epilepsies are disabling diseases for which surgical treatment may be indicated. The determination of the area to be operated (or 'epileptogenic zone') is based on a bundle of clinical arguments and neuroimaging, having a direct impact on surgical success. Epileptic patients have electrical abnormalities that can be detected …
Efficacy of Personnalized Transcranial Direct Current Electrical Stimulation (tDCS) in Drug-resistant Epileptic
The goal of this clinical trial is to to obtain a significant decrease in seizure frequency in patients with refractory focal epilepsy after applying treatment of cathodal tDCS, compared to sham stimulation drug-resistant epileptic patient. The main questions it aims to answer are: Changes in quality of life Percent of …
A Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy of Low-intensity Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation in Patients With Drug-resistant Epilepsy
This will be a prospective, open-label, single-arm, multi-center, pilot study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) neuromodulation using NaviFUS System in patients with drug-resistant unilateral or bilateral temporal lobe epilepsy (DR-TLE).
Self-administered ONe-of-a Kind Approach to Epilepsy Therapy Through a Web-based Music Application
This is a prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blinded randomized study of self-administered auditory intervention in a naturalistic home environment.
Cartography of Social Cognition Network and Their Alterations in Patients With Epilepsy
Social cognition, which refers to the ability to interpret social information and behave accordingly in a social environment, is crucial in everyday life. But this ability has been shown to be altered in patients with epilepsy, especially in medial temporal lobe epilepsy, which leads to a deterioration in the patient's …
Mos-FED (Mosaicism in Focal Epilepsy Cortical Dysplasia Tissue)
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a malformation of brain development, the most common cause of drug-resistant epilepsy and often caused by mutations in mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway genes. Patients with FCD develop drug-resistant seizures. This study will look at FCD tissue removed during epilepsy surgery and aims to …
Computational Neuroscience of Language Processing in the Human Brain
Language is a signature human cognitive skill, but the precise computations that support language understanding remain unknown. This study aims to combine high-quality human neural data obtained through intracranial recordings with advances in computational modeling of human cognition to shed light on the construction and understanding of speech.
Electrical Impedance Tomography & Selective Stimulation of Vagus Nerve
Electroceuticals is a new field in which the goal is to treat a wide variety of medical diseases with electrical stimulation of autonomic nerves. A prime target for intervention is the cervical vagus nerve as it is easily surgically accessible and supplies many organs in the neck, thorax and abdomen. …
