With a new type of deep brain stimulation, conductor Rand Laycock can focus more on the music and less on managing his Parkinson's symptoms. This technology adapts to his brain activity in real time to control his symptoms. See how it works: @epilepsydoc.

Epigenetic changes affect the function of the glucose transporter DNA in endothelial cells from FCD2tissue….The role that decreased glucose tissue concentration in FCD 2 tissue remains unknown… future research is designed to uncover the significance and mechanisms in #epilepsy!.
Check out this new @ClevelandClinic study uncovering glucose metabolism in focal cortical dysplasia is linked to epigenetic GLUT1 regulation. Congrats to Chaitali and team led by Imad Najm @imadmnajm @CleClinicNews.#epilepsy #neuroepigenetics #GLUT1 #FCD.

Great and important contribution to the field! Congratulations!.
Grateful to contribute to this tremendous project, featuring distinguished collaborators. Inspiring work & congrats!. Using #neuroanatomy, fMRI & electrophysiology, the central sulcus is found to support the somato-cognitive action network. @Brain1878.

Very well said Sam! Thanks for your phenomenal contribution!.
Exceptional Summit. The question of the future of surgery was raised each day of the meeting. My takeaway. Be willing to be uncomfortable, and be comfortable being uncomfortable. It’s a small price to pay when the response to the subject of the future of surgery was, no surgery.

What an amazing line up! So much to think about and so much to be excited about! The future of epilepsy treatment is bright!.
From making #genetic testing part of routine #clinical care in #epilepsy to peeking over the horizon to #DNA methylation and pharmacogenomics, a lot of ground was covered in the morning session #CCFEpilepsySummit2024. Summaries below. @LalDennis @KatjaKobow @SamElOsta1
