Overview

Jaideep Kapur is affiliated with the University of Virginia in the United States and has contributed extensively to the fields of medicine and neuroscience. Their work spans multiple subfields, including psychiatry and mental health, cellular and molecular neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, pediatrics, perinatology and child health, and physiology.

The main topics of their research focus on epilepsy research and treatment, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, pharmacological effects and toxicity studies, neural dynamics and brain function, Alzheimer's disease research and treatments, EEG and brain-computer interfaces, and memory and neural mechanisms.

Jaideep Kapur's publication record includes papers in journals such as Epilepsia, Neurology, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Journal of Visualized Experiments, and Annals of Neurology. These venues appear frequently in their work, with thirteen publications in Epilepsia and eight in Neurology, among others.

Notable recent papers include:

  • Efficacy of levetiracetam, fosphenytoin, and valproate for established status epilepticus by age group (ESETT): a double-blind, responsive-adaptive, randomised controlled trial, 2020, The Lancet
  • Patterns of benzodiazepine underdosing in the Established Status Epilepticus Treatment Trial, 2021, Epilepsia
  • Progesterone modulates neuronal excitability bidirectionally, 2021, Neuroscience Letters
  • Does Alzheimer's disease with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy represent a distinct disease subtype?, 2023, Alzheimer's & Dementia
  • Neocortical injury-induced status epilepticus, 2020, Epilepsia

Collaborations appear to be an important aspect of their research, with frequent coauthors including Ifrah Zawar, Suchitra Joshi, Mark Quigg, Carol A. Manning, and Anastasia Brodovskaya.
