Excited to share our work - new fundamental understanding of direct electrical information flow in multinuclear human thalamocortical circuits, working towards biologically inspired restoration strategies in complex brain disorders ⁦@JosefParvizi⁩ nature.com/articles/s4159…

Jumping on the latest AI image trend: the career action figure. Nice attempt at a frame, and the stereotactic robot is a bit steampunk - classy touch! #deepbrainstimulation #epilepsy #neurosurgery #stereotaxy

Grateful for an incredible surgical epilepsy fellowship with @DrValiante — mentor, friend, and fellow two-wheeled wanderer. From the OR to the trails, your trust and guidance shaped this journey. Excited to carry it all forward in epilepsy neurosurgery at @UManitobaNSx 🚴‍♂️🧠🙏

🧠 New publication in Epilepsia! During the evaluation of epileptic networks in drug-resistant epilepsy, SEEG-guided radiofrequency thermocoagulation can improve seizure burden and even result in seizure freedom in some patients! Work led by @PavelPichardoMD , under the guidance…

Proud of our latest publication accepted in JoVE, on #sEEG for invasive #epilepsy monitoring: app.jove.com/v/67623/roboti… @akshaysharma_MD @NSarmey @RichardRammoMD #neurosurgery #stereotactic #stereoelectroencephalography #electrode #robotics #neurotwitter #brain #stereotaxy

🚨 Our multicenter study by @dr_chifa on visual #SEEG features in #epilepsysurgery is now out in @ANA_journals @WileyNeuro! 🔎 Key finding: Spatial co-occurrence of gamma-spikes + preictal spikes best predicted #seizure freedom! Check it out 👉 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

Happy World Neurosurgeons' Day, to colleagues near and far! Honoring Dr. Harvey Cushing's birthday (pioneering father of #neurosurgery)! #brain #surgery #neurotwitter #worldneurosurgeryday

Wouldn't it be cool to be able to stimulate deep within the brain without the need for brain surgery (i.e. DBS), and without actually making a physical lesion in the brain (i.e. focused ultrasound or pallidotomy)? This paper provides 'proof of concept' that a transcranial…

Proud to share the first of our two-part sequel papers on the #TUS-#DBS project! @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s4146… We recorded local field potentials using #PerceptPc #DBS systems in #Parkinsons patients while applying transcranial ultrasound stimulation (#TUS) — aiming to…

Super excited to share our new lab preprint showing that human pulvinar stimulation engages select cortical pathways by Jordan Bilderbeek, with @Kai_J_Miller @GregoryWorrell @HarveyHuangMed @JamieVanGompel @brunnerlab @JTWillieMD and others biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How to read an #EEG: a step-by-step guide! Great work by Dr. Butler & @KNascimenski. @SBeniczky neurology.org/doi/10.1212/NE…

Ever wondered if the fear of urban cycling is more myth than reality? I've been lucky to bike to work, yet many see it as a perilous gamble. This video unpacks the true vs perceived risks of cycling—maybe it's time we rethink what “danger” really means. youtube.com/watch?v=vDhGHP…

Excited to share our new IFCN-endorsed guide from the ITRUSST consortium! It’s a comprehensive, practical roadmap for using transcranial ultrasound (TUS) in human neuromodulation—covering safety, equipment, lab setup, and more. Dive into the details sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Did you know the Leksell Frame can be mounted upside down for easy access to the posterior fossa for DBS and brain biopsy? We show how: doi.org/10.1159/000543… #stereotacticsurgery #deepbrainstimulation #cerebellum @kalialabs @CA1CA2CA3CA4 @newton_cho @BenDavidson__

Big news! The fly connectome is featured on the cover of a special edition of Nature. This is all possible thanks to the collaboration of 292 members of The FlyWire Consortium! nature.com/immersive/d428… Check out the thread for an overview of the 9 #flywire papers published today

53 years ago, the first CT scan was performed thanks to an eccentric engineer at the Beatles’ record company, allowing us to peer into the brain for the first time! 🧠🔍 This breakthrough forever changed the way we understand and diagnose brain conditions. #MedicalHistory #CTScan

Dr. Elad Levy (@eladlevymd) will present results from the first clinical trial of a permanently implanted brain-computer interface at the 2024 @CNS_Update meeting. This groundbreaking tech could restore independence to those with severe paralysis. buffalo.edu/news/releases/…
