Auditory Stimulation Effects on Sleep and Memory in Patients With Epilepsy
Recruiting
This study will investigate the role of coordinated brain rhythms during sleep in memory consolidation and determine whether playing precisely timed brief bursts of noise can enhance these rhythms and improve memory in epilepsy inpatients with implanted hippocampal electrodes.

Amygdala Memory Enhancement
Recruiting
The objective is to understand how amygdala activation affects other medial temporal lobe structures to prioritize long-term memories. The project is relevant to disorders of memory and to disorders involving affect and memory, including traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder.

ON/OFF Stimulation and Reward Motivation in Patients With Deep Brain Stimulators
Recruiting
We propose to study approach/avoidance behavior as measured by the Approach Avoidance task in 20 epilepsy patients undergoing implementation of depth electrodes for seizure monitoring in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit at MGH. We will also study the effects of VC/VS electrical stimulation on approach-avoidance conflict in 20 adult patients who have undergone DBS implantation for severe MDD and/or OCD. There are 100-200 patients in the world with DBS electrodes in the VC/VS, and our research team ca... Read More

Gene-STEPS: Shortening Time of Evaluation in Paediatric Epilepsy Services
Recruiting
Overall, this observational cohort study aims too: 1. Implement rapid trio WGS for all children presenting to our health systems with epilepsy onset under 12 months of age. 2. Utilize electronic healthcare records and research databases to unite phenotypic and genomic data and to create a "virtual" registry across all institutions that will promote ongoing discovery. 3. Assess the impact of early genetic diagnosis on epilepsy, developmental, and health economic outcomes through formal longitudi... Read More
