À propos
Fabrice Bartolomei, MD, PhD is a neurologist specialized in epilepsy and Professor at the Aix-Marseille University (France) leading the Epileptology and Clinical Neurophysiology department. He is also member of the Research unit INSERM U1106 (DYNAMAP team). He is particularly involved in the presurgical evaluation of patients with drug resistant epilepsy and is a world leader in the analysis of Stereo-EEG recordings. He has published numerous studies in the field of epilepsy (>300, H index >50), particularly on the concept of “Epileptogenic Networks”. He has for a long time promoted the use of EEG/SEEG analysis and the co-inventor of the “Epileptogenicity Index, a method for assessing epileptogenicity of brain regions. He is currently the director of the “Fédération Hospitalo-Universitaire” FHU “Epinext” that gather 11 INSERM research units and 4 clinical departments into a consortium dedicated to the management and research on drug resistant epilepsies. He is the coordinator of a RHU (Recherche Hospitalo-universitaire, Investissements d’avenir/ANR) “EPINOV” (2018-2023) based on the study of individualized large scale modelling in epilepsy surgery and one of the three principal sinvestigators of the ERC grant “Synergy, Galvani” (2020-2026).
