Genetics, Rare Epilepsies
Validated multiple differentially expressed genes (DEGs), such as glycine receptor subunit 2 and cholecystokinin, at the transcript and/or protein levels, supporting the relevance of these genes to CDKL5-regulated excitability.

See the impact we have had over the past 25 years, watch UNITE recordings, get ready for Hamilton Unplugged and a Hamilton raffle!
Here, we describe therapeutic strategies for modulating disease-associated RNA molecules and highlight the potential of RNA therapeutics for the treatment of different patient populations such as sporadic, drug-resistant epilepsy, and childhood monogenic epilepsies.
Mechanisms
Featuring the work of CURE Epilepsy’s PTE Initiative Massachusetts General Team. Delineate strategies developed to mitigate the substantial motion artifact that complicates high resolution imaging in large animals, including heartbeat-triggered high-speed image stack acquisition.
CBD
“The medical cannabis research originated from the patient families and advocates in Colorado who have witnessed the positive effects of medical cannabis products.”
