41 - John Bernabei - How Neurosurgeons Are Using Machine Learning to Treat Epilepsy

Summary: This episode is a discussion I had with a colleague of mine at Penn, John Bernabei. He is an MD/PhD student interested in neurosurgery and shared with us of some details about his research in applying machine learning to better understand and treat epilepsy. We talk about his time at Duke, how he became interested in both neuroscience and computer science, and we wrap up with a discussion about Black Fynn, an innovative company founded by his mentor Dr. Brian Litt to apply machine learning to better understand neurological diseases. Keep an eye out for many more future episodes in the coming weeks and months. Dr. Brian Litt https://www.med.upenn.edu/apps/faculty/index.php/g275/p6213 BlackFynn https://www.blackfynn.com/about/
