Sleep and epilepsy have a reciprocal relationship, and have been recognized as bedfellows
since antiquity. However, research on this topic has made a big step forward only in recent …

To date, the unpredictability of seizures remains a source of suffering for people with
epilepsy, motivating decades of research into methods to forecast seizures. Originally, only …

Accurate identification of seizure activity, both clinical and subclinical, has important
implications in the management of epilepsy. Accurate recognition of seizure activity is …

Chronic brain recordings suggest that seizure risk is not uniform, but rather varies
systematically relative to daily (circadian) and multiday (multidien) cycles. Here, one human …

Objective. To perform automatic sleep scoring based only on intracranial
electroencephalography (iEEG), without the need for scalp EEG), electrooculography (EOG) …

Homeostatic plasticity allows neural circuits to maintain an average activity level while
preserving the ability to learn new associations and efficiently transmit information. This …

Objective. Electrical deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established treatment for patients
with drug-resistant epilepsy. Sleep disorders are common in people with epilepsy, and DBS …

Abstract Purpose of Review To review the relationship between sleep, neurodevelopment,
and epilepsy and potential underlying physiological mechanisms. Recent Findings Recent …

Sleep can modulate epileptic activities, but our knowledge of sleep perturbation by epilepsy
remains sparse. Interestingly, epilepsy and sleep both present with defining …

Sleep duration, sleep deprivation and the sleep–wake cycle are thought to play an important
role in the generation of epileptic activity and may also influence seizure risk. Hence, people …
