current research
There is still much to be understood about epilepsy. The UCSF (University of California, San Francisco) Department of Neurological Study has taken to research the cellular processes that happen during epileptogenesis (the development of epilepsy), and medicines to target specific areas by using genetic screens of zebrafish. This is being funded by external agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, and Epilepsy Foundation of America.
