About this listen
In this initial episode, host Jennifer Frontera, MD, is joined by Sahar Zafar, MD, associate professor of neurology at Mass General Brigham and vice chair of quality, to discuss the expanding role of artificial intelligence (AI) in neurocritical care. The conversation explores how large-scale EEG data, electronic health records, and advanced causal modeling can be leveraged to address longstanding gaps in seizure management, prognostication, and trial design. In addition, Zafar outlines how AI-driven approaches are being used to annotate neurophysiologic data at scale, quantify seizure burden, and extract clinically meaningful outcomes from unstructured records. Together, they examine the challenges of model validation, generalizability across health systems, and how these tools may ultimately inform more precise, data-driven treatment strategies in the neuro ICU.
