Konstantin Butenko compares four methods for mapping structural network activations in deep brain stimulation—two simple, two complex; some deterministic, some probabilistic—into @lead-dbs.org for direct use in the Fiber Filtering Explorer. See the methods paper below 👇👇

Massive, Herculanean work by @laurenahart.bsky.social and Garance Meyer to compile and integrate findings from DBS for epilepsy (20 targets!) including meta-analytical evidence for optimal stimulation sites for the two main targets (ANT & CM). Preprint out now 👇👇

A special thanks to my mentors over that few last years, @andreashorn.org and Garance Meyer. You’ve guided me through this project and helped shape the researcher I’m becoming. I’m incredibly grateful to have learned from you and to work alongside you.

I would like to thank all of the interdisciplinary collaborators @rolstonjohn.bsky.social, @saratheriver.bsky.social, @bahnebahners.bsky.social, @emiddlebrooksmd.bsky.social, @fredschaper.bsky.social that made this work possible!

Explore 40 years of clinical DBS targeting, from common practice to emerging directions by taking a deep dive into the lesser-known targets for DBS in epilepsy.

🧠 ⚡️ Preprint alert ⚡️ 🧠

I️n the most comprehensive review of DBS in epilepsy, with 124 studies, 1,210 patients, and 20 anatomical targets we map where stimulation works best and why.

Hard to keep track about all the great things our labmembers have achieved recently:

My lab has two fully funded MSc/PhD positions available!

* Cool research on neuroimaging, epilepsy, and brain development ⚡️
* Located in a brand new building with lots of natural light 🌱
* Worldwide collaborations 🤝🏼
* Fun and inclusive environment 🤩

Is generalized epilepsy a seizure of the whole brain or a specific brain network?

In our new paper out now in @naturecomms.bsky.social, we investigate this by combining brain abnormalities and DBS with the human connectome.

Very inspiring and conclusive talk by @lauradata.bsky.social on how neural delta waves during sleep control a cascade of hemodynamic function and post-hoc „clearance“ by csf waves (glymphatic system) here at #ANPA2025

Had a fantastic tour through MNI today together with @laurenahart.bsky.social and even saw Wilder Penfield’s OR!

Madan and Hart et al. introduce Lead-Tutor, an open-access educational resource that combines an imaging dataset of anonymized DBS cases with a software tool for self-teaching: doi.org/10.52294/001...

Thanks @fof.se for highlighting our research! 🙌 Using 7T MRI, Tobias Navarro-Schroeder (@kavlintnu.bsky.social) & I study #TransientGlobalAmnesia as a model for reversible #hippocampal inactivation & #memoryloss across disorders. #Transdiagnostic approach is 🔑 to study circuit-symptom relationships!

Science is littered with serendipitous findings. Now, a study has put a figure on just how often chance findings happen.
