Some patients with medically refractory focal epilepsy are chronically implanted with a brain-responsive neurostimulation device (the RNS ® System), permitting neurophysiological measurements at millisecond resolution. This clinical device can be adapted to measure hippocampal dynamics time-locked to cognitive tasks. We illustrate the technique wit...

Epilepsy associated with Rasmussen’s encephalitis (RE) is highly resistant to standard therapy and continues to present a therapeutic challenge. While epilepsy surgery remains the most effective management for patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy and RE, hemispherotomy may debilitating consequences on adult patients. Here we present the outc...
