Researcher · Division of Health AI

Alejandro Quintero Villegas, MD

Alejandro Quintero-Villegas is an Elmezzi Scholar at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research affiliated with the Institute of Bioelectronic Medicine. His research focuses on applying machine learning frameworks to predict response to neuromodulation therapies in drug-resistant epilepsy and investigating the role of antiphospholipid syndrome in neurological manifestations. He has contributed to systematic reviews and meta-analyses examining machine learning approaches for optimizing treatment outcomes in complex neurological conditions.

VNSRESPONDERNON-RESPONDER

VNS treatment efficacy in epilepsy

Machine learning models can predict which patients with drug-resistant epilepsy will respond to vagus nerve stimulation therapy, achieving an average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of 0.84 across 12 studies comprising 535 patients.
