The path from scientific discovery to cures for epilepsy

The epilepsies are a complex group of disorders that can be caused by a myriad of genetic and acquired factors. As such, identifying interventions that will prevent development of epilepsy, as well as cure the disorder once established, will require a multifaceted approach. Here we discuss the progress in scientific discovery propelling us towards this goal, including identification of genetic risk factors and big data approaches that integrate...
