Brigham researchers mapped lesions related to epilepsy to a common brain circuit This study points to a novel role of deep brain circuits in the cause and control of epilepsy New findings highlight ...

Lesion mapping led researchers to identify a common brain circuit related to epilepsy. A new brain circuit found by mapping lesions related to epilepsy could have clinical implications for predicting ...

A new study suggests temporal lobe epilepsy may be linked to early aging of certain brain cells. When researchers removed these aging cells in mice, seizures dropped, memory improved, and some animals ...

For medication-resistant epileptics, surgery is often the only way to stop seizures. However, for those with frontal lobe epilepsy, sometimes surgery doesn’t ensure the seizures stop. A new study has ...

This 3D illustration shows color-coded basal ganglia structures. These subcortical brain regions are located beneath the cerebrum's outermost layer of gray matter known as the cerebral cortex. Source: ...

Generalized epilepsy has traditionally been considered a seizure of the "'whole brain.'" However, new research has challenged this longstanding idea, since carefully targeting specific brain areas ...

Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Characterized primarily by seizures, epilepsy can present in a variety of ways depending on the individual and the ...

The unpredictable, debilitating nature of a seizure can be frightening, for both the person experiencing it and anyone watching nearby. In that moment, control often slips away as muscles stiffen, ...
