Overview

Hans Holthausen is affiliated with Bethel University in the United States. Their research primarily spans the field of Medicine, with focused contributions in several subfields, including Pediatrics, Perinatology and Child Health, Psychiatry and Mental Health, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Epidemiology, and Infectious Diseases.

Their main research topics involve epilepsy research and treatment, pharmacological effects and toxicity studies, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, congenital heart disease studies, infant development and preterm care, cerebral palsy and movement disorders, and neonatal and fetal brain pathology.

Holthausen's recent publications demonstrate ongoing engagement with epilepsy-related research. Notable papers include:

  • Could the 2017 ILAE and the four-dimensional epilepsy classifications be merged to a new "Integrated Epilepsy Classification"? (2020, Seizure)
  • Correlates of intellectual development before and after hemispherotomy: an analysis of 75 children and adolescents (2020, Epileptic Disorders)
  • From theory to practice: Critical points in the 2017 ILAE classification of epileptic seizures and epilepsies (2020, Epilepsia)
  • Epilepsy surgery for postinfectious lesions: A review (2024, Epilepsy & Behavior)

These publications reflect an emphasis on epilepsy classification, intellectual development following neurosurgical interventions, and surgical treatment of epilepsy, particularly postinfectious lesions.

Frequent collaborators in Holthausen's work include Felix Rosenow, Naoki Akamatsu, Thomas Bast, Sebastian Bauer, and Christoph Baumgartner. Their academic output is distributed among several journals with repeated appearances in Seizure, Epileptic Disorders, Epilepsia, and Epilepsy & Behavior.
