Stephanie H. Chen

Stephanie H. Chen, MD, is an Assistant Professor at the University of Maryland, School of Medicine, with a primary appointment in the Department of Neurology. She joined the faculty in September 2016, bringing expertise in epilepsy and clinical neurophysiology through her extensive training at institutions like the Barrow Neurological Institute and the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.

Education

• BS in Communication Sciences and Disorders, Northwestern University
• MD, Northwestern University, Feinberg School of Medicine
• MS in Translational Research, University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine

Research Focus

Dr. Chen specializes in epilepsy and seizure disorders, with emphasis on advanced imaging techniques (e.g., GluCEST) and dynamic network analysis to identify epileptic foci, study seizure propagation, and explore termination mechanisms in temporal lobe and neocortical epilepsy.

Publication Trends

Her recent publications integrate neuroimaging and computational neuroscience to address diagnostic challenges in non-lesional epilepsy. Key themes include molecular imaging applications, network connectivity modeling, and translational approaches to improving epilepsy surgery outcomes.
