Overview

Jean Gotman is affiliated with the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital in Canada. Their research primarily focuses on Neuroscience and Medicine, with significant contributions to several specialized subfields including Cognitive Neuroscience, Psychiatry and Mental Health, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging, and Pediatrics, Perinatology and Child Health.

The main topics addressed in their work encompass Epilepsy research and treatment, EEG and Brain-Computer Interfaces, Functional Brain Connectivity Studies, Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research, Advanced MRI Techniques and Applications, Sleep and Wakefulness Research, and Neural dynamics and brain function.

Gotman has published extensively in various scientific journals. Frequent publication venues include Clinical Neurophysiology, Epilepsia, Epiliepsy currents/Epilepsy currents, Brain, and Annals of Neurology.

Some of their recent papers demonstrate the range of their research interests. These include:

  • "A consensus statement on detection of hippocampal sharp wave ripples and differentiation from other fast oscillations" (2022, Nature Communications)
  • "Intracranial EEG in the 21st Century" (2020, Epiliepsy currents/Epilepsy currents)
  • "A brain atlas of axonal and synaptic delays based on modelling of cortico-cortical evoked potentials" (2021, Brain)
  • "Association of fast ripples on intracranial EEG and outcomes after epilepsy surgery" (2020, Neurology)
  • "A Subpopulation of Spikes Predicts Successful Epilepsy Surgery Outcome" (2022, Annals of Neurology)

Their collaborative work is reflected in frequent co-authorships with researchers such as Nicolás von Ellenrieder, Birgit Frauscher, François Dubeau, Chifaou Abdallah, and Tamir Avigdor.
