Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of a specialized inpatient rehabilitation program in patients with early in comparison with chronic epilepsy.
Adults with epilepsy reported significant difficulties with mathematics in daily life, which were not explained by epilepsy variables but by poor working memory.
Here, we review the ongoing impacts of the pandemic on HVET services amongst several different providers who used different initial models of HVET.
SUDEP
Letters of Intent Submissions Opens for CURE Epilepsy’s 2023 Taking Flight and CURE Epilepsy Awards, additional funding opportunities, and a workshop in this Researcher Update from CURE Epilepsy.
By helping surgeons decide if and where to operate, the tools developed by Johns Hopkins University researchers and newly detailed in the journal Brain, could help patients avoid risky and often-ineffective surgeries as well as prolonged hospital stays.

"We have found a very promising new drug candidate for treating epilepsy that works through a new mechanism—blocking connexin hemichannels.
Genetics
"We're getting more insights into specific brain networks. We're not waiting around for seizures to happen."
