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 ...

Genetics of the epilepsies [PDF]
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1999 Summary: Recent molecular insights into the human idiopathic epilepsies have suggested the central role of ligand‐gated and voltage‐gated ion channels in their etiology. So far, genes coding for sodium and potassium channel subunits as well as a nicotinic cholinergic receptor subunit have been identified for mendelian idiopathic epilepsies.

Time‐Frequency Fingerprint Analysis in SEEG Source‐Space to Identify the Epileptogenic Zone
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This case study highlights the application of seizure fingerprint analysis in the source‐space of stereo‐EEG (SEEG) data to accurately localize the epileptogenic zone (EZ) in patients with complex cortical malformations. A 25‐year‐old female with extensive bilateral perisylvian polymicrogyria (PMG) presented with intractable focal seizures ...
