[epilepsy] NYU Study on Epilepsy and Religious/Spiritual Experiences

 

Hello, my name is Clover Youn, and I am a research assistant for Dr. Orrin Devinsky, the director of the NYU Comprehensive Epilepsy Center. We are beginning a study called "Ictal Religious Experiences", in which we will be speaking to people with epilepsy who may have had experienced religious, spiritual or ecstatic phenomena during or around the time of seizures. Such phenomena may also include seeing or feeling a presence or a feeling as if connected to, or one with, the universe or a "force". Such experiences do not necessarily have to be those considered explicitly "religious", and you do not have to have a religious affiliation to be a part of this study. Should you have any questions about participation, please do not hesitate to ask. This study will be conducted either in the NYU Epilepsy Center or over the phone, and should take about 20-30 minutes of your time. If you are interested in being in this study or have any questions, please contact me at nyuepilepsy.religion@gmail.com.

Sincerely,

Clover Youn
