Closing Discussion

Session

Description: This session will explore new and advanced treatment options in epilepsy neuromodulation. This will include discussion about how neuromodulation complements resection in this field, and how these two treatment strategies may even be combined in the same patient. We will also explore the recently growing field of thalamic SEEG, and how thalamic recordings may help optimize target selection for neurostimulation. Finaly, while most brain stimulation strategies were originally studied only in adult epilepsy patients, we will explore novel approaches in children with drug resistant epilepsy.
