Investigators led by Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified mutations in a gene coding for a key ion channel in the ...

Why does the same genetic mutation cause a severe brain malformation in some patients but not in others? Researchers from the ...

UVA researchers used advanced gene editing to reverse a genetic mutation, offering hope for new treatments or cures.

ORLANDO — Genetic testing is warranted in patients with epilepsy of unknown origin, new research suggests. Investigators found that pathogenic genetic variants were identified in over 40% of patients ...

A new synthesis finds that common epilepsies are driven by thousands of tiny-effect genetic variants, most still undetected. A modestly larger whole genome association study (GWAS) for genetic ...

For families of children with severe epilepsy, controlling seizures is often just the beginning of their challenges. Even in cases where powerful medications can reduce seizures, many children ...
