About Me
Dr. Lee Jong Woo, an innovator in neurology, focuses on epilepsy and neurophysiology. A Harvard alumnus with a Computer Science A.B. (1993), his blend of technology and science led him to McGill University, where he completed a Ph.D. in Neuroscience (1999) and M.D.c.M. (2001). His postgraduate journey included an Internal Medicine internship at the New York Hospital of Queens and a Neurology residency at Partners Healthcare, Boston. Specializing further, he completed a Clinical Neurophysiology fellowship at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston. As an Associate Professor at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Dr. Lee's work centers on epileptic patient care, brain tumor-associated seizures, and pioneering medical devices. His development of CT and MRI-compatible EEG leads has transformed ICU EEG procedures. A leader in professional societies like the American Academy of Neurology, his accolades include the Medical Research Council of Canada MD/PhD Fellowship and the Dreifuss EpiFellows award, highlighting his research and clinical achievements. Dr. Lee's studies on seizures, particularly in critically ill patients and SUDEP (sudden unexpected death in epilepsy), have been groundbreaking. He co-invented the Korus device to decrease SUDEP risks and founded Soterya for its commercialization. His career, marked by academic rigor, clinical excellence, and a commitment to improving patient outcomes, makes him a prominent figure in neurology.
