Pediatric Brain Electrophysiology Lab

​

The mission of the Pediatric Brain Electrophysiology Laboratory (PBEL) is to understand how the human brain processes auditory information (i.e. a voice) to mediate social communication and to develop and improve approaches for the treatment of drug resistant epilepsy.

​

The PBEL was formed in 2019 and is led by pediatric neurosurgeon Taylor Abel, MD. We are located at UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh and the University of Pittsburgh.
