CHOP researchers use novel tool to mine clinical data and identify causative gene in severe childhood epilepsy.

CHOP researchers report that including parental testing in clinical genetic tests improves diagnosis to help guide treatment for pediatric epilepsy.

CHOP scientists joined with researchers worldwide to find genes involved in common forms of epilepsy. The findings may advance future precise treatments to control seizures.

Recent research has discovered a new genetic cause for a severe, difficult-to-treat childhood epilepsy syndrome, and found clues to potential medical treatments.

Neurology researchers studying a rare, devastating condition in infants have discovered the cause: gene mutations that disrupt mitochondria in cells.

CHOP has found a long-suspected “missing mutation” in severe infant epilepsy, with early hints that anti-seizure drugs might help patients.

In a rare genetic disorder causing severe, progressive neurological problems, CHOP researchers find hints that an amino acid supplement might be a targeted therapy.
