Overview

Ilo E. Leppik is affiliated with the University of Minnesota in the United States and has a research focus primarily in the fields of medicine and neuroscience. Their extensive work covers multiple subfields including psychiatry and mental health, pediatrics, perinatology and child health, cellular and molecular neuroscience, pharmacology, and cognitive neuroscience.

Their research contributions encompass a broad range of topics centered on epilepsy research and treatment, pharmacological effects and toxicity studies, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, antibiotics pharmacokinetics and efficacy, EEG and brain-computer interfaces, drug transport and resistance mechanisms, as well as schizophrenia research and treatment.

Recent notable papers authored or co-authored by Leppik include:

  • The epidemiology of epilepsy in older adults: A narrative review by the ILAE Task Force on Epilepsy in the Elderly (2023, Epilepsia)
  • Management of epilepsy in older adults: A critical review by the ILAE Task Force on Epilepsy in the elderly (2022, Epilepsia)
  • Severity of Topiramate-Related Working Memory Impairment Is Modulated by Plasma Concentration and Working Memory Capacity (2020, The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology)
