Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Startle‐induced seizure is a rare type of reflex seizure triggered by unexpected sensory stimuli that often occurs in children with early acquired cerebral lesions or brain malformations. We report a unique case of adult‐onset epilepsy with startle‐induced seizures.

Neural Modeling and Imaging of the Cortical Interactions Underlying Syllable Production [PDF]
, 2004 This paper describes a neural model of speech acquisition and production that accounts for a wide range of acoustic, kinematic, and neuroimaging data concerning the control of speech movements. The model is a neural network whose components correspond to

Speaker Normalization Using Cortical Strip Maps: A Neural Model for Steady State vowel Categorization [PDF]
, 2007 Auditory signals of speech are speaker-dependent, but representations of language meaning are speaker-independent. The transformation from speaker-dependent to speaker-independent language representations enables speech to be learned and understood from ...

Creativity and its link to epilepsy
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

Multisensory Processing in the Auditory Cortex [PDF]
, 2019 The capacity of the brain to combine and integrate information provided by the different sensory systems has a profound impact on perception and behavior. This is especially the case for audition, with many studies demonstrating that the ability of listeners to detect, discriminate, or localize sounds can be altered in the presence of other sensory ...

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Epilepsy syndromes classification
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Late‐onset asystole associated with vagal nerve stimulation
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) is a form of neuromodulation that is an established adjunct in the management of drug‐resistant epilepsy. The common side effects of VNS are cough, dysphonia, or shortness of breath, which are often mild and do not require discontinuation of therapy.

The landscape of epilepsy surgery in older adults: Challenges and opportunities
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract The prevalence of epilepsy increases with age, and with the aging population, the number of drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) cases is expected to rise. However, epilepsy surgery remains underutilized and is typically offered to younger adults. Despite historical hesitancy due to concerns over risks and outcomes, evidence over the last two decades
