Summary
- Dr. Jack J. Lin is Professor of Neurology and the Director of the UC Davis Comprehensive Epilepsy Program. With a focus on the amygdala-hippocampal-prefrontal network, his research utilizes intracranial EEG recordings to gain insights into the oscillatory mechanisms of cognitive processing and the anatomical correlates of neuropsychiatric comorbidities in epilepsy. His findings have contributed to understanding the role of emotional memory, sleep-dependent memory consolidation, and structural abnormalities in temporal lobe epilepsy. Dr. Lin has received ongoing research support from prestigious grants and has held various scientific appointments, including serving on NIH study sections and editorial boards. He has been recognized with numerous honors and has published extensively in leading scientific journals.
