Biographical summary
Nicholas Gregg, M.D., is a board certified neurologist and epileptologist, with expertise in neuromodulation therapies for drug resistant epilepsy. He is an Assistant Professor of Neurology at the Mayo Clinic.
He attended medical school at the University of Pittsburgh, and completed neurology residency at Northwestern University. Dr. Gregg then completed epilepsy and deep brain stimulation subspecialty training at the Mayo Clinic.
Dr. Gregg's clinical focus is on neuromodulation therapies for drug resistant epilepsy, including deep brain stimulation (DBS), responsive neurostimulation (RNS), and vagus nerve stimulation. His research aims to personalize neuromodulation approaches for epilepsy to improve seizure control and reduce epilepsy related comorbidities. Additionally, he works with chronic brain and wearable device recordings to forecast seizure risk and improve epilepsy care.
