The paper “Modelling dysfunction-specific interventions for seizure termination in epilepsy”, co-authored by Aravind Kumar Kamaraj and Matthew Szuromi (Boston University, USA), has been published in the npj Systems Biology and Applications (link to published paper here). The authors use a parsimonious two-dimensional neural mass model to study why first-line treatments fail to terminate seizures in a subset […]
