REM Sleep Brain Connectomes and Seizure Susceptibility
AI Projects
Information
Challenge: Understanding seizure patterns during REM sleep is critical for developing therapies for patients with epilepsy, but brain connectivity is complex and hard to measure.
Mitacs’ Role: Funded applied research using high-density EEG and AI to map brain connectomes and identify seizure susceptibility during unstable REM sleep.
Impact: Insights could lead to novel therapies that improve patient safety and quality of life, highlighting how applied neuroscience research can address real-world health challenges.
