Fellows have received prestigious grants and have published their findings in remarkable journals or presented at prestigious meetings such as the American Academy of Neurology, the American Epilepsy Society (AES), and the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society Annual Meetings. The course and the 1-2 year fellowship in Human Brain Mapping have attracted international scholars, post-doctoral students, scholars, junior faculty, neuropsychologists, and EEG technologists worldwide. Rafeed Alkawadri directs and moderates the Annual Course on Human Brain Mapping and Has established and moderated The Annual EEG Book Club for EEG fellows. The thematic scope of his publications includes Cingulate Gyrus Epilepsy and frontal lobe Epilepsy, Brain Resuscitation and Restoration of Brain Circulation, The spatial and signal characteristics of High-Frequency Oscillations, Passive Artificial Intelligence AI-based Mapping, Passive Mapping of Epileptic Brain Networks employing Single-Pulse Electrical Cortical Stimulation SPEPs, Connectivity Index, and free-running ECoG, ictal Magnetoencephalography, and Brain-Computer-Interface (BCI) and schematic biomedical research at large.ĭr. Rafeed Alkawadri currently employs EEG, intracranial EEG/ Electrocorticography (ECoG), Magnetoencephalography (MEG), Electrical Cortical Stimulation, and fMRI. He has also received several awards and honors.ĭr. He is regularly invited to speak on different subjects within the expertise and has authored multiple chapters on several aspects of Epilepsy care and Human Brain Mapping. In addition to publishing his work in leading peer-reviewed journals, such as Nature, JAMA Network, Annals of Neurology, among others, he has also presented his work at numerous national and international meetings. Rafeed Alkawadri is currently conducting several research projects on Human Brain Electrophysiology and multimodal mapping. A member of several national and international committees, he addresses acute and surgical epilepsy care (e.g., management of drug-resistant epilepsy) and Human Brain Mapping.ĭr.

He is a member of the American Academy of Neurology, the American Epilepsy Society, and the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society. Rafeed Alkawadri is a neurologist certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology in Neurology and Epilepsy. In 2005, he graduated from Damascus with a Medical degree. Rafeed Alkawadri completed his residency training in neurology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas. After completing a two-year fellowship in epilepsy and clinical neurophysiology at the Epilepsy Center at Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, where he served as the Chief Fellow, he was appointed to the position in 2012. Since 2013, he has served as the Director of the Human Brain Mapping Program and the Evoked Potentials Laboratory. Rafeed Alkawadri, before joining UPMC, practiced epilepsy and neurophysiology at Yale School of Medicine. As a Yale Scholar and recipient of the KL2-NIH award, he will leverage computational electrophysiology to study human brain networks in collaboration with colleagues at Pitt and Carnegie Mellon Universities and collaborators across the country and internationally.ĭr. Rafeed Alkawadri has been named Associate Professor of Neurology at the University of Pittsburgh (PITT), the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), and the Director of the Human Brain Mapping Program.

Recent advance in functional neuroimaging and electrophysiological techniques allows us to investigate this issue in ways that have previously been impossible. How the brain integrates information from multiple sensory modalities is a crucial quest in neuroscience. Satellite symposium of the 8th Japan Human Brain Mapping Meeting
