Dr. Jon Kleen is a neurologist, epilepsy specialist, and the Lip-Bu Tan Endowed Professor at the University of California, San Francisco. An Associate Professor of Neurology and a UCSF Chen Scholar, he is dedicated to improving the lives of patients with epilepsy by stopping seizures and finding new ways to overcome epilepsy-related memory problems. He is also a neuroscientist with expertise in signal processing and computational approaches. He applies this to cutting-edge diagnostic approaches and emerging therapies for epilepsy, including brain stimulation. His lab investigates how memory circuits work in the human brain and why they are disrupted in many people with epilepsy. He also develops technology that integrates brainwave recordings with brain images to help pinpoint where seizures start, with the goal of increasing the chance for future curative surgery in patients whose prior treatments failed. Dr. Kleen is originally from rural Minnesota. He earned a doctorate in neuroscience from Dartmouth College and his medical degree from Dartmouth Medical School. At UCSF, he completed a residency in neurology, a fellowship in epilepsy, and postdoctoral training in human brain neurophysiology at UCSF. He enjoys mentoring research and clinical trainees at all levels, and he was elected by UCSF's medical student chapter of Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society for excellence in teaching.
