Collapse Overview 
Collapse overview
Dr. Bernardo is a pediatric neurologist and epileptologist in the Department of Neurology at UCSF. He has clinical interests in the treatment of early childhood-onset epilepsy, drug resistant epilepsy, and in surgical treatments for drug resistant epilepsy. His research involves the development of computational approaches to guide the diagnosis and treatment of childhood forms of epilepsy.

Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
