We perform research in the following broad areas:

Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS):

The responsive neurostimulation (RNS) System is a device that continously monitors brain waves for electrical abnormalities indicative of seizures, and "responds" by generating and electrical current to the brain when it detects an abnormality. Research includes various aspects of the device including clinical, neurophysiology, and machine learning.

 

Machine learning:

Machine learning approaches are currently being tested or planned in the following areas:

• Video
• Empatica
• EEG
• RNS

Epilepsy clinical research:

Clinical research by chart reviews are performed for elucidating clinical characteristics and socio-demographic patterns in epilepsy and epilepsy care.
