About
Dr. Hoon-Chul Kang is a leading pediatric epileptologist whose work has fundamentally advanced the surgical treatment of medically refractory epilepsy. His research centers on the safety and efficacy of stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), particularly through the innovative use of robotic systems. Dr. Kang’s major contribution lies in demonstrating the clinical utility of a novel, table-mounted stereotactic robot based on the classic center-of-arc principle—a methodology previously absent in robotic-assisted epilepsy surgery. His landmark 2025 study (cited 1 time) provides critical evidence that this robot enables precise electrode placement with enhanced safety and reduced operative time, offering a transformative option for patients with drug-resistant seizures. Beyond this technical innovation, his work has helped establish SEEG as a cornerstone of modern epilepsy surgery, improving outcomes for countless children. With a career dedicated to bridging engineering and clinical care, Dr. Kang continues to shape the future of neuromodulation and minimally invasive neurosurgery.
