Summary

This trial will help researchers learn more about the brain and how it works.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who can perform specific tasks and give consent on their own. It's suitable for those with epilepsy, healthy subjects, or other nervous system disorders. People with conditions like stroke, tumors, or psychosis that could affect EEG results cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The study is testing a new method called high-density electroencephalogram (HD-EEG) to map brain functions related to movement, sensation, language, emotion, and thinking in people with neurological conditions.
What are the potential side effects?
Since HD-EEG is a non-invasive recording technique of brain activity there are typically no side effects associated with the procedure itself.
