Our theme for June is acquired epilepsy
In 65% of people, there is no known cause of their epilepsy. But for others, epilepsy can be caused by many factors, including other medical conditions and brain injuries. This month, we’ll be looking at how our research is increasing understanding of acquired epilepsy within these different contexts to ultimately help the full spectrum of people living with the condition.
