RECRUITING

Studying the Effects of Brain Stimulation on Cognitive Control and Associated EEG in Human Subjects.

Description

This is a basic neuroscience study of modulating brain oscillations involved in cognitive control. We will record brain signals and stimulate specific regions of the brain in human participants who are undergoing monitoring for epilepsy surgery. It is not a clinical trial for treating any disease.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Adult patients who are undergoing electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring as part of a standard clinical procedure for the treatment of pharmacologically resistant epilepsy at University of Cincinnati Medical Center.
  • * Patients who have cognitive or physical impairments that would limit their ability to participate in the cognitive testing will be excluded from the study. Other exclusions include adults unable to consent, non-English speaking patients, children age 17 and younger, pregnant women (note: pregnant women are not candidates for intracranial EEG monitoring), and prisoners.
