Thalamic connectivity mirrors spatial maps of network dysfunction in nonlesional focal epilepsy
Abstract Objective Focal epilepsy is increasingly conceptualized as a network disorder, yet the extent to which network dysfunction reflects a shared phenotype remains unknown. Spatially conserved patterns of network dysfunction may implicate a centralized mechanism underlying widespread impairment.

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

AI‐based localization of the epileptogenic zone using intracranial EEG
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming our lives. Machine learning (ML) enables computers to learn from data and make decisions without explicit instructions. Deep learning (DL), a subset of ML, uses multiple layers of neural networks to recognize complex patterns in large datasets through end‐to‐end learning.
