Crowdcast Where the world gathers

Join us for the BIDS virtual Town Hall Wednesday, July 16 at 11:00 AM EDT β€” on the OSSIG Crowdcast at crowdcast.io/ossig2025

We’ll present updates from BIDS, extension proposals, and the community. We hope to see you there and hear your thoughts.

Human pulvinar stimulation engages select cortical pathways in epilepsy The pulvinar has been proposed as an effective neuromodulation target for patients with posterior quadrant and temporal epilepsies. However, the pulvinar has a large tissue volume, multiple subnuclei, and widespread cortical connections. It remains unknown whether electrical stimulation of distinct pulvinar subregions affects the temporal, occipital, and parietal areas differently. To address this gap, we delivered single-pulse electrical stimulation to the pulvinar and measured the resulting brain stimulation evoked potentials in twelve patients undergoing stereotactic EEG for drug-resistant epilepsy. Brain stimulation evoked potentials were parameterized across the occipital, temporal and parietal cortex. Stimulation of the lateral pulvinar elicited significant brain stimulation evoked potentials in striate and extrastriate areas that diminish as stimulation shifts towards the medial pulvinar. Conversely, stimulation of the ventral aspect of the medial pulvinar produced significant lateral temporal evoked potentials, which diminish with lateral pulvinar stimulation. We also found that stimulation of the dorsomedial pulvinar evoked significant parietal responses with limited striate/extrastriate and lateral temporal responses. These results demonstrate that electrical stimulation of specific pulvinar subregions influences distinct occipital, parietal and lateral temporal areas. Selective targeting of pulvinar subregions to maximize seizure network engagement may be essential for individualized treatment of posterior quadrant and temporal epilepsies. ### Competing Interest Statement N.M.G is an industry consultant for NeuroOne.

We are very happy and proud to be awarded the The Neuro - Irv and Helga Cooper Foundation Open Science Prize.

To paraphrase Yaroslav Halchenko who was in Montreal to receive the prize on behalf of the whole community.

"Standards are the common language of open science!"
