Clinical and Experimental Epilepsy
Duration
70 minutes
Epilepsy is a common and disabling neurologic condition affecting adults and children that results from complex dysfunction of neural networks and is ineffectively treated with current therapies in up to one third of patients. This dysfunction can have especially severe consequences in pediatric age group, where neurodevelopment may be irreversibly affected. Furthermore, although seizures are the most obvious manifestation of epilepsy, the cognitive and psychiatric dysfunction that often coexists in patients with this disorder has the potential to be equally disabling. Given these challenges, her research program aims to better understand how epileptic activity disrupts the proper development and function of neural networks, with the overall goal of identifying novel biomarkers and systems level treatments for epileptic disorders and their comorbidities, especially those affecting children.
