Aperçu du projet

Circadian, or 24-hour, rhythms control almost all biological systems in our bodies with sleep-wake cycles and body temperature control the best known examples. Interestingly, pain is also governed by these 24-hour rhythms. People suffering from chronic neuropathic pain have been found to rate their pain as being worse during the…

Aperçu du projet

Attention is an incompletely understood, complex process that requires precise coordination of brain rhythms within the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). Children with epilepsy are disproportionately affected by attention deficits. Intracranial electrodes implanted for surgical treatment of epilepsy in this population provide a unique opportunity to safely study and modulate the…

Aperçu du projet

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease that attacks the nerves in the brain, making it difficult for the brain to send signals to the rest of the body. MS symptoms are extremely variable, and can include difficulty walking, fatigue, pain, and cognitive issues such as problems with concentration, memory and…
