Out now in @PLOSBiology! Our results support a model of increasing voice selectivity along the auditory hierarchy using intracranial recordings from human auditory cortex. 🧵 1/6 bit.ly/3PZcTYy @kylemrupp @jasminehect @readymadeloaf @bchandra_pitt @TaylorAbelMD

I'm honored to join the Board of Directors for the Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Alliance @PESAlliance !
PESA offers crucial education and support to our epilepsy surgery families. I'm thrilled to be part of the team!
@ChildrensPgh @PittNeurosurg @PittNeurology #epilepsy
Join us in welcoming our newest board members: @a__fallah @TaylorAbelMD @kaitlynaoconnor and Natalie Robinson. We look forward to your stewardship, governance, and guidance as we build capacity to serve our community better.

🗓️6-month post-op:
✅18.87% seizure free
✅46.28% free of atonic seizures
‼️Atonic seizure rate ⬇️80.12% from 8.3 to 1.65 daily
<5% with permanent neuro deficits.
Thank you @JasmineHect @TaylorAbelMD @PBELab 🔥

Congrats co-authors! Low-grade epilepsy associated tumors (LEATs) are a common cause of DRE 🧠 ⚡️ Here we provide proof of concept and prelim data for the analysis of residual tumor on SEEG electrodes to aid in diagnosis. Worth future study!

‼️ Come check out our posters at #APAN2023! 🧠 👂 🗣️ Congrats @kylemrupp @JasmineHect and @shovanbhatia!
Congrats to @kylemrupp on a high-scoring his abstract and landing a poster teaser! @PittCMU_MSTP student @JasmineHect presents prelim results of her F30 funded research & @PittTweet Med student @shovanbhatia presents his fantastic rotation work @PBELab @TaylorAbelMD @PittCSD

🧠In this study the authors directly examined neural responses to familiar voices & faces in human #FusiformGyri using direct cortical recordings in epilepsy surgery patients

To recognize a famous voice, human brains use the same center that lights up when the speaker’s face is presented, finds a clever neuroscience study where participants were asked to identify U.S. presidents. upmc.me/3jVhgJv @APSPhysiology @TaylorAbelMD
ALT Photo and quote from Dr. Taylor Abel: “In the visual cortex, specifically in the part that typically processes faces, we also see electrical activity in response to famous people’s voices, highlighting how deeply the two systems are interlinked.”

Great job to @nallimuthiah and the team!
Check out our latest VNS paper Child’s Nervous System. #epilepsy
Vagus nerve stimulation may allow a higher proportion of pediatric patients with non-accidental trauma related epilepsy to achieve ≥ 50% seizure frequency reduction compared to other epilepsy etiologies. bit.ly/3vH0Gjd @TaylorAbelMD @ChildrensPgh
