Epilepsy is a common disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. An overwhelming
majority of people with epilepsy regard the unpredictability of seizures as a major issue …

Introduction: Focal epilepsies are diseases of neuronal excitability affecting macroscopic
networks of cortical and subcortical neural structures. These networks (“epileptogenic …

A brain-computer interface (BCI) for seizure prediction provides a means of controlling
epilepsy in medically refractory patients whose site of epileptogenicity cannot be resected …

In 1924, Hans Berger, a German psychiatrist, performed the first electroencephalographic
(EEG) recording in humans (Berger, 1929), a discovery that was initially greeted with great …

Background and objective Multimodal data analysis and large-scale computational
capability is entering medicine in an accelerative fashion and has begun to influence …

A" brain defibrillator" may be closer than we think. An epileptic seizure involves a
paroxysmal change in the activity of millions of neurons. Feedback control of seizures would …

Synchronization of local and distributed neuronal assemblies is thought to underlie
fundamental brain processes such as perception, learning, and cognition. In neurological …

Objective The spatial distribution of functional connectivity between brain areas and the
disturbance introduced by focal brain lesions are poorly understood. Based on the rationale …

Theoretical models and experimental EEG data were examined to quantify the spatial
resolution of scalp surface recordings of EEG. The results suggest that scalp EEG electrodes …

Abnormally strong functional linkage between cortical areas has been postulated to play a
role in the pathogenesis of partial epilepsy. We explore the possibility that such linkages …
