Send comments and feedback Is there a fast, simple way to measure whether someone with epilepsy is doing "better" or "worse" compared with a past clinic visit? Not really. Seizure count is often considered a standard, but multiple small seizures may have less impact on someone's life than a single generalized tonic-clonic seizure. In this episode, we talk with authors of a study on an outcome measure that factors the impact of seizures as well as the impact of treatments. The study: Validat...

Genetic testing for epilepsy surgery: Dr. Pat Moloney
In the second episode of our genetics and epilepsy series, Sharp Waves explores how genetic insights can inform considerations and outcomes of epilepsy surgery. Dr. Alina Ivaniuk interviews Dr. Patrick Moloney, currently an epilepsy genomics fellow at the Chalfont Center for Epilepsy at University College London. Selected publications: Do germline genetic variants influence surgical outcomes in drug-resistant epilepsy? Epilepsy Res 2024 Genomics in the presurgical epilepsy evaluation. Epile...
