1/2 The largest study of its kind in #epilepsy: We characterized ~1400 epileptic human brain tissues for somatic variants & identified novel epilepsy associated genes & show that show that such genes are strong candidates for cancer drug repurposing #precisonmedicine ...

Had an amazing time presenting my poster at the American Epilepsy Society! It was a rewarding experience sharing ideas and learning from others. Big thanks to my mentors and everyone I connected with at the conference—you all made it truly memorable. #AES2024 #Neurology

👀 Among our most-read in 2024: Nearly 1/2 of #dementia cases could be prevented or delayed by tackling 14 risk factors starting in childhood, suggests a standing Lancet Commission report. Find out more ➡️ hubs.li/Q030wMTp0

A novel analysis in #older adults with #epilepsy to understand how #cognitive impairment may impact practical decision-making in life. Great work by Ifrah Zawar MD MS-CR

New pre-print from our team. Alina Ivaniuk 🇺🇦 develop a strategy to link MONDO ontology with ILAE clinical #epilepsy syndromes to analyze clinical genetic findings from 71,000 people epilepsy. The largest 'epilepsy gene inventory' study to date.Check it out: medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Many students have fallen in love with #neurology after neuroanatomy. I’m forever grateful to Dr. Haines for showing me the wonders of neuroscience. I think he would have been proud of this edition.
