Summary

This study looks at whether special brain wave patterns can predict if someone will have memory or thinking problems after surgery for epilepsy. About 50 adults with drug-resistant epilepsy who need brain electrode monitoring will do simple thinking tasks while their brain activity is recorded. The goal is to help surgeons avoid removing brain areas that are important for everyday thinking.
