Microscale Electrophysiological Markers May Help in the Development Antiseizure Therapies
Jimmy C. Yang, MD, and Sydney S. Cash, MD, PhD, of the Department of Neurology, and colleagues made microelectrode recordings during neurosurgeries and identified cortex microdomains that seem to contribute to the seizure network—an important step toward understanding how to develop better treatments for epilepsy.

Physicians at Massachusetts General Hospital have demonstrated the novel, effective use of responsive neurostimulation for treating status epilepticus in a patient who did not respond to antiepileptic drugs, immunomodulatory therapy, ketogenic diet or transcranial magnetic stimulation.
