Assistant Professor
Neurology
School of Medicine

Dr. Patrick Hullett is a neurologist at UCSF who specializes in caring for people with epilepsy. He has expertise in the medical and surgical management of epilepsy. His research examines network mechanisms that generate emotion in the human brain to help inform epilepsy surgery and to understand the links between epilepsy and psychiatric disease.
