David M. Treiman, MD, is the Newsome Chair in Epileptology and Director of the Epilepsy Center, the Clinical Neurophysiology Laboratories, the Clinical Neurophysiology/Epilepsy Fellowship Program and the Laboratory for Translational Epilepsy Research at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, Arizona. He is Professor of Neuroscience and Bioengineering at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona.

Dr. Treiman completed his undergraduate work at the University of California at Berkeley, graduated from medical school at Stanford University School of Medicine, and then trained in internal medicine and neurology at Duke University Medical Center, in Durham, North Carolina. After service in the United States Navy Medical Corp, which included a tour of duty at the U.S. Naval Medical Center, Yokosuka, Japan, he joined the faculty at UCLA, where he rose to the rank of Professor. In 1997 he moved to the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey – Robert Wood Johnson Medical School to be Professor and Chair of Neurology, but, after four years in New Jersey, returned to the west to his current position.

Dr. Treiman has trained a number of postdoctoral fellows in clinical epileptology and epilepsy research. He is a member of several professional societies, serves as a reviewer for many neurology journals, and is a member of a number of advisory boards and committees. He has authored nearly 200 scientific articles, chapters, and invited papers in the area of epilepsy. Dr. Treiman’s research, both clinical and laboratory, has been focused on treatment issues in epilepsy, and include mechanisms and treatment of status epilepticus, development of new drugs and novel non- pharmacological interventions for the treatment of epilepsy, and the prediction and prevention of epileptogenesis after status epilepticus and traumatic brain injury.
