Epileptic micronetworks and their clinical relevance
A core aspect of clinical epileptology revolves around relating epileptic field potentials to underlying neural sources (e.g. an “epileptogenic focus”). Yet still, how neural population activity relates to epileptic field potentials and ultimately clinical phenomenology, remains far from being understood. After a brief overview on this topic, this seminar will focus on unpublished work, with an emphasis on seizure-related focal spreading depression. The presented results will include hippocampal and neocortical chronic in vivo two-photon population imaging and local field potential recordings of epileptic micronetworks in mice, in the context of viral encephalitis or optogenetic stimulation. The findings are corroborated by invasive depth electrode recordings (macroelectrodes and BF microwires) in epilepsy patients during pre-surgical evaluation. The presented work carries general implications for clinical epileptology, and basic epilepsy research.
