Under Dr. Rey's direction, the ReyLab records single-neuron activity and captures intracranial electroencephalograms from electrodes implanted in the brain of patients with epilepsy. This data is used to pursue several lines of inquiry, including understanding human episodic memory, improving epilepsy diagnosis and treatment, and developing new tools for data acquisition and analysis of electrophysiological data in the human brain.
