Adam O. Hebb

Dr. Hebb is a neurosurgeon specializing in neuro-oncology and functional neurosurgery, including deep brain stimulation. He is dual board certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. Dr. Hebb’s research is focused on developing novel techniques to improve the quality of life for patients with neurological disease. His research laboratory has two primary focuses that utilize neurophysiological recordings of human brain signals. One focus is designed to determine the relationship between brain signals and normal human behavior, in order to customize neurostimulation based on predicted behavior in a closed loop system. The other focus area is the analysis of brain signals recorded from different regions, including subcortical local field potentials and electrocorticography, to determine the pattern of brain connectivity using measures of neuronal synchrony.
