Research and grants

For Patients:
My research interests include neonatal neurology, specifically neuro-developmental outcomes in children with neonatal onset epilepsy and seizures. I also have an interest in febrile infection related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES), as well as other autoimmune / inflammatory epilepsy syndromes.

For Referring Providers:
My research interests include neonatal neurology, more specifically neonatal seizures and neonatal epilepsy. I am interested in neuro-developmental outcomes after seizures in the neonatal period, including early predictors of outcome and the role of EEG in assisting with prognosis. I am also interested in febrile infection related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES). This is a rare condition, although devastating for the children affected, and I hope that through multi-center collaboration we can improve the recognition, treatment, and outcomes for children with FIRES.
