It was such a joy to work on this with Christine, Ria and Jenny! And thank you to Jenny for giving me the opportunity to follow my curiosity on this topic, from sex differences in physiology to the impact of language socialisation, menstrual stigma and body objectification! 💃

Amazing work from @maria_eriksson_ with some findings to be optimistic about!! Excited to see where this project goes next…

[Maria Eriksson @maria_eriksson_]

Can epilepsy surgery halt - or even reverse - cognitive decline in children? 🧠👶

To answer this, we studied long-term neuropsychological trajectories before and after epilepsy surgery.

Honoured to have this published in @Brain1878

Super excited to be spending the next 2 months at the Children’s National Hospital @polerlab in Washington, DC on a #BogueFellowship from @UCLLifeSciences researching language plasticity in paediatric epilepsy 🧠 🇺🇸

Absolutely delighted to have this paper out in @EpilepsiaJourn! 🌟

Predicting seizure outcome after #epilepsy surgery remains challenging.

We investigated if...

1. more complex models 🤖
2. larger samples 👥
3. better data 📊

... would help.
