A study introduces a scalable 2D human neuron platform to probe how brain-like rhythms emerge and how specific drugs reshape them, aiding epilepsy and autism research.

In everyday clinical practice, symptoms are regularly observed after epileptic seizures, known as "post-ictal symptoms", which, in contrast to the usually short duration of seizures, typically last ...

Two recent studies conducted by scientists at the University Health Network and the University of Toronto provide new ...

Microscopy image of a human stem cell-derived hippocampal organoid. When the tissue carries an epilepsy-causing variant in the SCN8A gene, inhibitory neurons (seen in red) are disrupted, and ...

WASHINGTON – Temporal lobe epilepsy, which results in recurring seizures and cognitive dysfunction, is associated with premature aging of brain cells. A new study from researchers at Georgetown ...

DelveInsight forecasts a rise in the drug-resistant epilepsy market from 2025 to 2034, driven by higher prevalence, improved diagnosis, treatment advances, aging demographics, increased awareness, and ...
