131| Consciousness in Epilepsy – A Conve...

John Bellone & Ryan Van Patten - NavNeuro
About this episode

Today we give you our conversation about consciousness in epilepsy with Dr. Hal Blumenfeld, Professor of Neurology, Neuroscience, and Neurosurgery at Yale University. In addition to being a well-regarded teacher of neuroanatomy, Hal is also a researcher, with his primary focus being in patients with epilepsy. We think that this episode dovetails nicely with the one we just released on neuroanatomy.
