Epilepsy is a neurological condition that affects millions of people worldwide, causing recurrent seizures that can have a significant impact on a person's health, independence and quality of life.
While treatments are available, they don't work for everyone, and many people continue to experience seizures despite medication. Researchers are working to better understand epilepsy, improve treatment options and find new ways to prevent and manage the condition.
