No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study aims to uncover the neuronal bases of epilepsy by recording the activity of single neurons in the brain of patients with epilepsy who are candidates for assessment with intracranial electroencephalography (EEG). A micro-electrode array will be inserted into the brain in addition to the standard intracranial EEG electrodes for up to 4 weeks.
