Current Biology, 2015 Our cognitive abilities emerge from the coordinated activity of neurons in the brain. The average human brain contains 86 billion neurons that are richly interconnected through synapses, contact points for electrochemical communication. Patterns of synaptic connectivity create functional ensembles of neurons, called neural circuits, which mediate ...

Peri-Ictal Changes in Depression and Anxiety in Persons With Epileptic and Non-epileptic Seizures
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022 ObjectiveWe tested the hypothesis that epileptic, but not non-epileptic, seizures would produce an improvement in comorbid depression and anxiety symptoms in the peri-ictal period, much like the antidepressant effects of electroconvulsive therapy ...

Genome-wide meta-analysis of over 29,000 people with epilepsy reveals 26 loci and subtype-specific genetic architecture [PDF]
, 2022 Epilepsy is a highly heritable disorder affecting over 50 million people worldwide, of which about one-third are resistant to current treatments. Here, we report a trans-ethnic GWAS including 29,944 cases, stratified into three broad- and seven sub-types

Photosensitivity and Reflex Epilepsies
, 2021 Reflex epilepsies (RE) objectively and consistently provoked by specific external or internal stimuli are important clues for investigating complex mechanisms of epileptogenesis. RE have many intriguing subtypes depending on the trigger.

Occipital intermittent rhythmic delta activity (OIRDA) in pediatric focal epilepsies: A case series
Epilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2021 In this case series, we have identified an atypical pattern of OIRDA (Occipital intermittent rhythmic delta activity) on the electroencephalograms (EEGs) of three pediatric patients with self-limited focal epilepsies, including Childhood Epilepsy with ...
