Researchers created a computer model based on direct brain recordings from epilepsy patients and discover the existence of a network of neural regions directly involved in seizures.
A protein called Tmep appears to control neuron excitability by altering the behavior of an ion channel, impacting the likelihood of whether that neuron will fire.
When people close their eyes, they can form mental images of things that exist only in their minds. Neuroscientists studying...
Mutations in beta4 proteins could have a surprisingly large effect on health, researchers claim.
Researchers investigate why we experience episodes of déjà vu.
Researchers have developed a wearable device that measures fluctuations in heart rate and can predict when an epileptic seizure may occur.
Keck Medicine announces they will perform a ground breaking surgical implant for epilepsy patients.
Researchers have identified a new key factor in the generation of febrile seizures. The findings could lead to new therapeutic treatments for fever induced seizures.
A large-scale study identified rare genetic variations associated with both severe and less severe forms of epilepsy.
Working with fruit flies, researchers discover a genetic underpinning for susceptibility to brain injuries and links to human TBI.
A new system translates EEG data into a 3D movie which shows activity in all recorded regions of the brain. The heat map shows where seizures start and spread throughout the patient's brain, in addition to evaluating the speed of activity during a seizure.
A new study has uncovered the neurological basis of speech motor control, the complex coordinated activity of tiny brain regions that controls our lips, jaw, tongue and larynx as we speak.
