Imaging memory in temporal lobe epilepsy: predicting the effects of temporal lobe resection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Functional magnetic resonance imaging can demonstrate the functional anatomy of cognitive processes. In patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy, evaluation of preoperative verbal and visual memory function is important as anterior temporal lobe ...

Respiratory‐Limbic Coupling via a Thalamic Circuit Alleviates Anxiety

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study delineates a conserved preBötCGlu→PVT→CeA circuit that gates anxiety and respiration. Activation of this circuit is anxiolytic and respiratory‐stabilizing, while its inhibition has the opposite effect. Mechanistically, PVT exerts its anxiolytic action via a disinhibitory microcircuit: its inputs preferentially target CeL GABAergic neurons ...

Addressing the epilepsy surgery gap: Impact of community/tertiary epilepsy center collaboration

open access: yesEpilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2020
To assess whether a formal collaboration between a non-surgical, community epilepsy center and a surgical, tertiary-care epilepsy center can improve patient progress throughout the pre-surgical referral process, and to elucidate predictors of referral ...

Brain‐Adhesive Bioelectronics With Shape‐Morphable and Biodegradable Properties for Stable Brain Signal Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A brain‐adhesive sensor (B‐Sensor) was developed by integrating a self‐healing biodegradable elastomer, a tissue‐adhesive hydrogel, and molybdenum electrodes. The B‐Sensor adheres to brain tissue, conforms to cortical curvatures, and maintains stable electrical performance over the intended period for reliable recording of spatiotemporal brain activity
