@NaderDahdaleh Congratulations Nader!!!

Thrilled to receive news today from Dr Lesniak that I got promoted to Professor! Great start to the weekend!

University of Iowa Pediatric Neurology is hiring. Join our fantastic group of 17 faculty, 5 APPs in lovely Iowa City. You won't find a better group to work with.

Video evidence from baby monitors supports a long-suspected link between seizures and sudden death in young children. @EricBoodman reports. trib.al/9ep10CL

🔉Thank you to neurosurgeon & epilepsy researcher @thebraindocMD 🤩🧑‍🔬 for sharing insight into his impactful paper re #SUDEP on the podcast!👇🏻 📹 YouTube youtu.be/zUOrazE-qig 🎧 Podcast shorturl.at/bdPT5 🔗 Transcription shorturl.at/BMUVZ #epilepsy #NeuroTwitter

New research from @uiowa points to extended apnea that continues following a seizure as a major factor contributing to Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). cureepilepsy.org/news/universit… #SUDEP #epilepsyresearch #epilepsy

@SpineTharin @calvinraygun @NINDSfunding Congratulations!!

Just got the NOA for my first R01🥳@calvinraygun surprised me with yummy champagne❤️So many thanks to all of my mentors, friends, lab members past and present, and everyone whose belief in me sustained me to here🥰Today is a good day🤓#mdphdlife

Breathing difficulties after seizures? 💨 Explore the intriguing link between the amygdala region and persistent breathing loss revealed in a recent study. #PhysicianCommunity #EpilepsyCare @JCI_insight @thebraindocMD @uiowa #EpilepsyAwareness View: neurologylive.com/view/study-rev…

@LabNobis @NeurologyToday @JCI_insight @UIowaNeuro @uiowa @UIchildrens @CureEpilepsy Thanks Bill, I really appreciate it!

@thebraindocMD @NeurologyToday @JCI_insight @UIowaNeuro @uiowa @UIchildrens @CureEpilepsy Fantastic work!

Great write-up and commentary @NeurologyToday: bit.ly/3MLO7vX on our latest publication @JCI_insight - we are one step closer to identifying epilepsy patients at high risk for #SUDEP and a preventative treatment for SUDEP @UIowaNeuro @uiowa @UIchildrens @CureEpilepsy

@ganne_chaitanya @NeurologyToday @JCI_insight @UIowaNeuro @uiowa @UIchildrens @CureEpilepsy Thank you Chaitanya!

@thebraindocMD @NeurologyToday @JCI_insight @UIowaNeuro @uiowa @UIchildrens @CureEpilepsy Congratulations Dr. Dlouhy!!

A @UIowaNeuro research team identified a specific area of the brain linked to prolonged loss of breathing after a seizure, shedding light on a rare complication of #Epilepsy that causes approximately 3,000 deaths per year. spr.ly/6016uSR7I

In what’s called the best tradition in college sports, @HarrySmith shares the history of people in the Kinnick Stadium waving to patients at Stead Family Children's Hospital overlooking the field — and meets a player in a full-circle moment.

A new study underscores the amygdala's critical role in post-seizure breathing suppression, offering a vital clue in understanding SUDEP—a leading death cause among severe epilepsy patients. neurosciencenews.com/amygdala-epile… #neuroscience 1/2

@JoelIBerger @aers16 Thanks Joel! We have an amazing team!

Amazing work from @aers16, @thebraindocMD and others...

We found that in #epilepsy patients, when seizures spread to a focal subregion of the human #amygdala, apnea is evoked & can persist for minutes after the seizures ends! Patients are unaware! This may lead to sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (#SUDEP). insight.jci.org/articles/view/…

Today's Nobel is a reminder to focus on the work and not the journal. The key publications cited by the committee were published in Immunity, Molecular Therapy, and Nucleic Acids Research. Respectable journals, but not the Big 3. The discoveries are what's important, not a name.
