<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">David Myland Kaufman, Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, was graduated from the medical school of the University of Chicago and completed training in internal medicine and then neurology at Montefiore Medical Center / Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM) hospitals.&nbsp; During his residency, Dr. Kaufman originated the nation-wide course, which he still directs, Clinical Neurology for Psychiatrists.&nbsp; More than 25,500 psychiatry residents and attendings have attended the course, which has served as the basis for his classic textbook, <em>Clinical Neurology for Psychiatrists</em>, (Elsevier) currently in its eighth edition and available in Italian, Japanese, and Spanish translations. He is also a co-editor of <em>Child and Adolescent Neurology for Psychiatrists</em> (Lippincott).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">Dr. Kaufman has also been a visiting professor at Ben Gurion University, Yale University, Pritzger / University of Chicago, and other American medical schools, and U.S. Naval Medical Centers, as well as a frequent lecturer at AECOM. He is a member of medical school's Leo M. Davidoff Society for excellence in teaching.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">In addition to his educational role at AECOM hospitals, Dr. Kaufman in partnership with Dr. Michael Swerdlow founded the quintessential neurology faculty practice&nbsp; K&amp;S&nbsp; at Montefiore Hospital. K&amp;S is the largest and longest surviving faculty practice in the institution. Drs. Kaufman and Swerdlow also give neurology consultation and attending rounds and supervise neurology clinics at Montefiore. In the clinics and faculty practice, Dr. Kaufman concentrates on the neurologic aspects of psychiatric illness and movement disorders. He works closely with the psychiatrists and, for botulinum treatment of certain dystonias, the neuromuscular group. Dr. Kaufman is the 2007 recipient of Montefiore's Staff and Alumni award for outstanding service.</span></p>

<p>The maturation of GABA<sub>A</sub><span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>receptor-mediated signaling from depolarizing to inhibitory is an age-related process controlled by cation chloride cotransporters, such as KCC2. As a result, GABA exerts dual functions, being an important neurotrophic factor during early development and the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter of the mature central nervous system. In our laboratory we have been investigating the age mechanisms through which early life stressors and seizures may disrupt the normal patterns of brain development, by disrupting the neurotrophic effects of GABA. We are also studying methods to reverse these adverse processes. Furthermore, we are very interested in understanding how epileptogenesis proceeds in the developing brain and what is the specific role of GABA<sub>A</sub><span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>receptors in this process.</p>
<p>To better understand the pathophysiology and design better methods to treat catastrophic early life epilepsies, we are developing and studying new models of early life epilepsy. These include models of symptomatic infantile spasms that recapitulate most of the features of the human condition. Several projects are under way to (a) elucidate the pathophysiology of infantile spasms, and (b) conduct preclinical trials to find better treatments for spasms and the associated comorbidities. Our studies have provided preclinical evidence for new potential treatments with disease modifying properties for these early life epileptic encephalopathies, such as mTOR inhibitor, carisbamate and a new vigabatrin analog.</p>
<p>Post-traumatic epilepsy is a common consequence of traumatic brain injury leading to high morbidity and morbidity. Our lab is participating in an international multicenter preclinical consortium, EpiBioS4Rx, leading efforts to develop better therapies for post-traumatic epilepsy. We use a rodent model of traumatic brain injury to identify targets and test for better therapies, through a combination of expression studies, in vivo behavioral and electrophysiologic monitoring and therapy screening to identify antiepileptogenic compounds. Furthermore, through a separate project, we are looking into factors predicting epilepsy and behavioral outcomes after traumatic brain injury.</p>
<p>Genetic etiologies are often identified in patients with epilepsies. Our lab has been investigating genes involved in lissencephaly associated epilepsies and developmental disorders as well as Rett syndrome which is due to MeCP2 gene mutations. Through the use of mouse models we have been investigating genotype-phenotype correlations and mechanisms involved with the ultimate goal of testing therapies.</p>
<p>Students interested in these projects will gain exposure to a variety of<span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span><em>in vivo</em><span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>and<span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span><em>in vitro</em><span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>techniques that combine molecular biology<em>, in vivo</em><span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>and<span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span><em>in vitro</em><span class="apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span>electrophysiology, histological, and behavioral studies and will be involved in projects with direct translational relevance to the clinical practice, i.e. identification of novel therapies.&nbsp;</p>
