Scientific Abstract

The use of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) as a potential therapy for treatment resistant epilepsy remains an area of active clinical investigation. We recently reported the first chronic evaluation of an implantable, clinical-grade system that permits concurrent stimulation and recording, in a large animal (ovine) model developed to study DBS for epilepsy.
