Genetics, Tech/AI
A method to profile gene activity in the living human brain has been developed by researchers at FutureNeuro, the Research Ireland Centre for Translational Brain Science and RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences, in collaboration with international partners.
Infantile Spasms, Tech/AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) analysis of caregiver-recorded videos has the potential to diagnose infantile epileptic spasm syndrome, according to a new study.
Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Temporal lobe seizures can make part of the brain act as if asleep. A new study identifies the neurotransmitter that may be responsible.
Genetics, Rare Epilepsies, Treatment
A new study from the Epi25 Collaborative, a group of over 200 researchers around the world working to uncover the genetic basis of epilepsy, has revealed new potential targets for treatment, both shared by and unique to different subtypes of epilepsy.

Genetics, Pediatric Epilepsy
In this study, researchers demonstrated that loss of function of the TRIO gene impairs interneuron migration, a key process in the formation of the cerebral cortex.
Genetics, Rare Epilepsies
Study finds long non-coding RNA may regulate genetic disorders.
Study finds that heatwaves may be associated with an increase in abnormal brain activity among people with epilepsy.
"The findings of this study suggest that maternal influenza infection during pregnancy might increase the risk of childhood seizures, especially febrile seizures, but not epilepsy."
