Brain mapping study reveals thalamus role in seizures and memory
NCT ID NCT07226908
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how two parts of the thalamus (ANT and PLV) are connected to other brain areas and how they are involved in seizures and memory. Researchers will record brain activity from 100 epilepsy patients who already have electrodes implanted for medical reasons. The goal is to better understand seizure spread and memory formation, not to test a new treatment.
