Research Focus
Dr. Emily Gilmore's lab at Yale University focuses on understanding how certain brain patterns, referred to as electrographic seizures (ESz) and high-frequency periodic discharges (HF-PD), affect recovery in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). The lab aims to establish whether these patterns indicate a worsening brain condition and how they could be treated to improve patient outcomes. Their research is crucial as it may lead to better treatment strategies for sTBI, enhancing the likelihood of recovery for affected individuals.
