  • Using scalp and intracranial EEG, measure changes in electrical activity of the human brain associated with memory.Evaluated for each patient during monitoring period of approximately 2 weeks.

    Primary objective is to use human intracranial electrophysiology to study localization and function of the human brain. With continuous recording of the electrical activity in participants' brain, study participants will be asked to take part in research tasks involving memory. The researchers will use the information to further the understanding of the exact location of cognitive functions.
