Members and collaborators of the Altalib Lab have an opportunity to learn about or work in four areas of interest:
-
Epilepsy Outcomes research focuses on evaluating and enhancing interventions to improve the health and well being of people of epilepsy.
-
Neuropsychiatry research explores how neurological diseases, particularly epilepsy (including epilepsy treatment), impact emotional health. Neuropsychiatric research also focuses on the management of functional neurological disorders, particularly psychogenic non-epileptic seizures. Our goal is to improve mental health care within neurology.
-
Neurology Health Informatics work focuses on how to optimize clinical data organization and work- flow to improve neurological care as well as how to best leverage data to answer clinical research questions and promote quality improvement.
-
Global Mental Health work evaluates the role of culture, religion, and spirituality on the expression and management of neuropsychiatric illness. Our lab focuses on Muslim populations.
