Using Direct Brain Stimulation to Study Cognitive Electrophysiology

This project forms a multi-site research collaboration to carry out verbal and spatial memory experiments in patient volunteers to better understand the neural bases of human memory, employing direct electrical brain stimulation as a tool to study those dynamics and their relationship to memory performance.

Novel Multimodal Neural, Physiological, and Behavioral Sensing and Machine Learning for Mental States  

The investigators will demonstrate the tools in healthy subjects without neural recordings and in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who already have intracranial EEG (iEEG) electrodes implanted based on clinical criteria for standard monitoring to localize seizures, which is unrelated to our study.

Comparative Efficacy of Pregabalin and Lacosamide in Patients With Herpes Zoster and Post Herpetic Neuralgia

Lacosamide (LCM) was approved in 2008 in the European Union and in the United States as adjunctive therapy for the treatment of focal-onset seizures with or without secondary generalization in adults and adolescents with epilepsy. Its efficacy has also been proven in neuropathic pain.Although Pregabalin and Lacosamide have proven effective …

Predictors of Better Outcomes After Severe Acquired Brain Injuries

Severe Acquired Brain Injury is defined as a traumatic, post-anoxic, vascular or other brain damage that causes coma for at least 24 hours and leads to permanent disability with sensorial, motor, cognitive or compartmental impairment. In this context, an accurate characterization of individual patients' profile in terms of neuronal damage, …
