Current Research

Medically refractory epilepsy patients may undergo surgery to identify the focal location of their seizures with implanting electrodes. By sending small electrical stimuli to these electrode contacts, we can investigate causal changes in brain dynamics. I change the parameters of these stimulations to see if they behave as predicted from prior. My research would not be possible without the guidance of my mentors and lab members in both the Alan Dorval lab and the Elliot H. Smith lab.
