Can epilepsy surgery halt - or even reverse - cognitive decline in children? 🧠👶

To answer this, we studied long-term neuropsychological trajectories before and after epilepsy surgery.

Honoured to have this published in Brain

🧵Main findings:

#Epilepsy surgery is able to halt neuropsychological decline. Huge congratulations to Maria Eriksson for publishing this milestone paper in Brain ! 👏🏻🥳

Congrats to those successful in securing NTNs, great to see so many past and present Oxford Drs in Neurosurgery OUH

🧠 Neuroimaging has transformed our grasp of brain function! 📢 Ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM) is taking brain imaging to a whole new level. It can capture cerebrovascular flow down to micrometer scales, providing incredible insights. 🌟

✨Maria Eriksson spoke about children with drug-resistant epilepsy and connection with neuropsychological impairments.
💡She concluded that children with focal epilepsy should be considered for epilepsy surgery as soon as possible after diagnosis

Researchers in London are seeking the perspectives of people affected by #epilepsy on current and future treatments. Completing this 20 min survey will aid the design of a new study on electrical stimulation to reduce seizures, known as ‘neuromodulation’:

Our #EpilepsySurgery research group Great Ormond Street Neurosurgery & DN ICH has been alive for many years but so far, nameless and faceless.

We’re excited to now have a name - caesar - and a website at kidsepilepsysurgery.com.

Have a look around, find out what we’re up to, get in touch!

Why do scientists, medical students and doctors all get so disoriented and confused when talking about the subdivisions of thalamus, especially when referring to DBS, neuromodulation or lesion therapy? There is a lack of common terminology and this was nicely laid out by Mai in
