Abstract
The Seventh International Workshop on Advances in Electrocorticography (ECoG) convened
in Washington, DC, on November 13–14, 2014. Electrocorticography-based research continues
to proliferate widely across basic science and clinical disciplines. The 2014 workshop
highlighted advances in neurolinguistics, brain–computer interface, functional mapping,
and seizure termination facilitated by advances in the recording and analysis of the
ECoG signal. The following proceedings document summarizes the content of this successful
multidisciplinary gathering.
