Patients with the identified variant may respond favorably to targeted treatment with a readily available anti-seizure medication.

In a new study, CHOP researchers integrate data regarding how the conditions present clinically with data on protein-protein interactions.

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.

“All staring is not necessarily seizure," but in M's case it was. M was diagnosed with CAE; he outgrew it by age 10, but was then diagnosed with PNEE. A CHOP Neurology fellow highlights the case.

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.

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