Scalable high-fidelity human vascularized cortical assembloids recapitulate neurovascular co-development and cell specialization

This paper introduces vascularized cortical assembloids (vCAs) that model neurovascular co-development and show improved cellular specialization and connectivity compared to standard cortical organoids.

White Matter Signals Reflect Information Transmission Between Brain Regions During Seizures

This study shows white matter signals during seizures reflect communication between brain regions and differentiate epilepsy pathophysiologies, challenging past assumptions about their limited value.

A Taxonomy of Seizure Spread Patterns, Speed of Spread, and Associations With Structural Connectivity

The paper develops deep learning algorithms to quantify seizure spread beyond onset zones and finds associations with structural connectivity and surgical outcomes.

"Primed to Perform:" Dynamic white matter graph communicability may drive metastable network representations of enhanced preparatory cognitive control

The paper identifies preparatory neural states associated with cognitive control by analyzing white matter communicability in human intracranial recordings.

High interictal connectivity within the resection zone is associated with favorable post-surgical outcomes in focal epilepsy patients
