Overview

Jean Isnard is affiliated with Claude Bernard University Lyon 1 in France. Their research spans several interconnected fields within medicine and neuroscience, focusing particularly on cognitive neuroscience and mental health. This work integrates clinical and experimental approaches to investigate neurological conditions, with an emphasis on epilepsy and brain connectivity.

The main fields of study for Jean Isnard include Medicine, with 33 publications, and Neuroscience, with 26 publications. Within Neuroscience, specific subfields are prominent: Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychiatry and Mental Health (each with 17 publications), Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience (7 publications), Pediatrics, Perinatology and Child Health (4 publications), and Neurology (3 publications).

Their research themes cover diverse topics such as:

  • Epilepsy research and treatment
  • EEG and Brain-Computer Interfaces
  • Functional Brain Connectivity Studies
  • Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research
  • Neural dynamics and brain function
  • Pharmacological Effects and Toxicity Studies
  • Advanced MRI Techniques and Applications

Recent scientific papers authored or coauthored by Isnard illustrate these topics. Key publications include:

  • "A brain atlas of axonal and synaptic delays based on modelling of cortico-cortical evoked potentials," 2021, Brain
  • "Brain-scale cortico-cortical functional connectivity in the delta-theta band is a robust signature of conscious states: an intracranial and scalp EEG study," 2020, Scientific Reports
  • "The role of hybrid FDG-PET/MRI on decision-making in presurgical evaluation of drug-resistant epilepsy," 2021, BMC Neurology
  • "Predictors of outcomes after surgery for medically intractable insular epilepsy: A systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis," 2022, Epilepsia Open
  • "Visceral and emotional responses to direct electrical stimulations of the cortex," 2022, Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology

Isnard frequently publishes in venues such as Epilepsia (3 publications), Brain (2 publications), Epilepsy & Behavior (2 publications), Scientific Reports (1 publication), and BMC Neurology (1 publication).

Collaborations feature prominently in Isnard's work. Frequent coauthors include Sylvain Rheims, Alexandra Montavont, Hélène Catenoix, Marc Guénot, and Philippe Kahane, reflecting a network of researchers active in epilepsy and neurology.
