Multi-level Approach of Brain Activity Using Intracranial Electrodes in Epileptic Patients
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Focal Epilepsy, Electrodes, Implanted, Cognitive Function, Neurophysiology
In brief
The main goal of this project is to study the mechanisms of epileptic activities using intracranial macro and micro electrodes in epileptic patients undergoing pre-surgical investigation. The recordings will also be used to study physiological mechanisms like sleep and different cognitive functions.
