CITRUS: Gholipour Lab for Epilepsy Imaging Research

Research Projects

Current projects in Gholipour Lab

  • Cortical and subcortical functional aberrations in focal and generalized epilepsies assessed in a worldwide ENIGMA study
  • Functional brain mapping of motor, language, and memory functions using task-free, resting state fMRI
  • Functional anomaly mapping for biotyping, symptom mapping, and predicting surgical outcomes in epilepsy
  • Biotyping of focal epilepsy based on structural MRI measures, an Epilepsy-ENIGMA study 
  • Identification of functional MRI biomarkers for treatment response to antiseizure medications

Resting state functional MRI in Epilepsy

  • Identification of functional connectivity alterations in focal epilepsy to lateralize and localize seizure foci through a machine learning approach
  • Functional anomaly mapping in focal epilepsy
  • Mapping functional brain networks using resting state fMRI 
  • Characterizing large scale network abnormalities in focal epilepsy using functional gradients

Multimodal Imaging for Epilepsy

  • Machine learning for EEG analysis and annotation
  • Quantitative PET processing using MRI-informed segmentation for focal epilepsy
  • Multimodal integration of intracranial EEG recordings with functional imaging from fMRI and PET scans
  • Investigation of the role of the piriform cortex and claustrum in focal epilepsy using 7T imaging
