Beautiful depiction of electrical activity in the brain merging MRI and EEG data, designed in 2016 by @neuroscapeucsf @UCSF
It takes a village!
I have to show off our incredible and dedicated surgical #epilepsy team (with some behind the camera) in our second ever ECOG/ acute SEEG guided awake resection at @uOttawaNSx.
The wise Dr. Ammar Kheder and his 10 commandments of #SEEG and #Epilepsysurgery
Jan 2025 was a busy month at the Civic Hospital and @uOttawaNSx
So incredibly proud of the surgical epilepsy team and partners for achieving our first SEEG (and two more since then), RF ablation, and disconnection surgery.
Much more to come in 2025!

Today is International #EpilepsyDay Let's be aware that #Epilepsy is the second most common neurological condition. Many cases can be prevented. It can be treated. How frequent is it? 5-6 per 1000 Canadians can be affected, 14 per 1000 in Latin America, likely higher in Africa.

Morning / evening @WesternU @LHSCCanada.
Another #neurosurgery call week in the books. This job is truly a privilege 🧠🔍🔪.
Shoutout to a great team and colleagues @WesternU_NSx @WesternU_CNS 🙏🙏.
#neurosurgery can beat you up. Long days and hard nights. But it is all worthy at the end.
Thank you @AmEpilepsySoc for the opportunity to participate in the epilepsy surgery course. Great first day learning from leaders in the field!
