Overview

Stewart Boyd is affiliated with Great Ormond Street Hospital in the United Kingdom. Their research primarily focuses on medical and neuroscientific aspects of epilepsy and related neurological conditions, integrating clinical studies with neurophysiological methods.

Boyd has made significant contributions in the study of epilepsy research and treatment, with additional research interests spanning neonatal and fetal brain pathology, sleep and wakefulness research, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, cerebrospinal fluid and hydrocephalus, metabolism and genetic disorders, and EEG and brain-computer interfaces.

Their work appears across several publication venues, including:

  • Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology
  • Epilepsia
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • The Journal of Urology
  • Clinical Neurophysiology

Boyd frequently collaborates with other researchers, with notable coauthors including:

  • J. Helen Cross
  • Felice D'Arco
  • Ronit Pressler
  • Christin Eltze
  • Krishna B. Das

Selected recent papers authored or coauthored by Stewart Boyd include:

  • Sleep homeostasis, seizures, and cognition in children with focal epilepsy, 2022, Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology
  • Proportion of resected seizure onset zone contacts in pediatric stereo-EEG-guided resective surgery does not correlate with outcome, 2022, Clinical Neurophysiology
  • Diagnostic algorithm for children presenting with epilepsia partialis continua, 2020, Epilepsia
  • Natural history of epilepsy in argininosuccinic aciduria provides new insights into pathophysiology: A retrospective international study, 2023, Epilepsia
  • Lesion detection in epilepsy surgery: Lessons from a prospective evaluation of a machine learning algorithm, 2023, Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology

Their research contributions extend across multiple subfields of study such as psychiatry and mental health, pediatrics, perinatology and child health, cognitive neuroscience, cellular and molecular neuroscience, and radiology, nuclear medicine and imaging, reflecting a multidisciplinary approach to neurological disorders in children.
