Накратко на български
Паметта за местоположението на обекти се анализира чрез разграничаване на това как мозъкът разпознава самия предмет и къде се намира той. Тези данни помагат за по-добрата подготовка на пациенти с епилепсия преди хирургична интервенция.

Cerebral representation of object-location memory
This project aimed to examine lateralization patterns of object-location memory, focusing on two distinct process mechanisms: object processing and spatial-location processing. This was planned to be investigated in a multimodal setting consisting of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI), volumetry, and neuropsychological assessment in epilepsy patients and healthy participants. It was expected that this project will add valuable information for presurgical management of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy patients with right side foci. The project has been ended half way through its course at the stage of data collection. The data acquired thus far was not sufficient to produce any significant results or conclusions regarding the socio-economic impact of the project.

Цел на проекта
The uptake and recall of arbitrary associations between objects and their spatial location is a core feature of spatial memory. This form of learning is fundamental to survival across the phylogenetic spectrum. Nevertheless, the hemispheric organization of this function has yet to be understood. Whilst object-location memory is one component of spatial memory most consistently lateralized to the right mesial temporal region, recent research on neurologically healthy participants suggests the existence of task-specificity within the object-location paradigm. Our aim in this project is to investigate the lateral cerebral representation of object-location memory, focussing on two distinct process mechanisms: object processing and spatial-location processing. We propose to study unoperated patients with well-lateralized mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) with the use of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and intracranial EEG recording.
