DESCRIPTION:The 2024-2025 Neuro Epilepsy Lecture Series will include eight 
 lectures covering hot topics in basic and clinical epilepsy research. Spea
 kers will include distinguished leaders and rising stars\, with the goal o
 f bridging basic research and clinical perspectives.\n\n\nRegister for In-

 f Internal Attention\n\nAbstract: Understanding the neural basis of intern
 al attention is an emerging topic in contemporary cognitive neuroscience. 
 In an era dominated by experimental models that focus on external processe
 s\, the study of internal cognition faces a unique challenge: how can inne
 r experience be measured and attributed to neural signals? In this lecture
 \, Julia Kam will discuss the neurophysiological basis of internal attenti
 on\, drawing on paradigms designed to tackle this challenge in combination
  with scalp and intracranial EEG recordings. She will review work highligh
 ting internal attention broadly\, including the switching between attentio
 n states and the specific thought content engaged during internal attentio
 n. Kam will also introduce ongoing clinically oriented research examining 
 cognitive states that can modulate interictal epileptiform discharges.\n\n
 Julia Kam\n\nDepartment of Psychology\, Hotchkiss Brain Institute\, Univer
 sity of Calgary\n\n\n\nJulia Kam is an Associate Professor of Psychology a
 nd a full member of the Hotchkiss Brain Institute at the University of Cal
 gary. She completed her PhD at the University of British Columbia and trai
 ned as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California\, Berkeley. H
 er lab aims to develop a mechanistic model of the neural basis of internal
  attention\, which will ultimately drive the development of tools that opt
 imize attentional control. In particular\, the lab studies how the human b
 rain processes internal representations and aims to translate this researc
 h to applied and clinical contexts\, including predicting attention states
  in the real world and studying this in psychiatric and neurological popul
 ations.\n\n\nThese seminar series are made possible through the sponsorshi
