Epilepsy burdens 1% of the population. Brain surgery can cure seizures and stop cognitive decline, but it is complex and often unsuccessful. I aim to advance cure from epileptic brain disease radically by 1) pinpointing the core of epilepsy and 2) understanding the effects on normal brain functioning. High-frequency oscillations (HFOs) are novel markers of the core of focal epilepsy, discovered in long-term invasive EEG. I initiated direct HFO-based guidance of epilepsy surgery with intra-operative invasive electrodes. However, HFOs still appear stochastic epiphenomena. Therefore, I will now uncover the direct microlevel high-frequency EEG reflection of the distorted cortex. I will use…
