Metabolic Epilepsies & Gene Therapy – Phillip Pearl
Neurologist Dr Phillip Pearl (Boston Children’s Hospital / Harvard Medical School), joins Torie to explore inherited metabolic epilepsies. He explains why include far more than seizures, shares powerful stories (including vitamin B6-responsive epilepsy), and traces the progress from mid-20th century discoveries to today’s targeted therapies - including research into gene therapy!
