Dr. Chapeton is a Staff Scientist in the Functional Neurosurgery Section. Julio received bachelor’s degrees in physics and mathematics from the University of South Florida and earned his physics Ph.D. from Northeastern University in Boston. He joined the lab as a postdoc in October 2014 and later became a Staff Scientist. His current work is focused on analyzing functional and effective connectivity using intracranial EEG and micro-array recordings. The main focus of his research at the NIH is to gain a better understanding of the architecture of human brain networks and the propagation of information through these networks. Other projects involve developing quantitative measures of epileptiform activity which may be useful for seizure detection, prediction, and localization.
