Bruxelles - Laeken
Projet soutenu de Alec Aeby : This joined HUDERF-Saint-Pierre doctoral project aims at characterizing the impact of Interictal Epileptiform Discharges (IEDs) during sleep on brain-behaviour patterns related to verbal and motor learning and associated cognitive impairments in 40 children with Self-limited Focal Epilepsy (SFE) syndrome compared to 40 Typically Developing. Results will be translational and could be useful to explore if suppressing these IEDs during sleep with treatment might improve cognition in SFE children.
