A newly discovered biomarker – visible in brain scans for hours after febrile seizures – predicts which individuals will subsequently develop epilepsy, according to UC Irvine researchers. This diagnostic ability could lead to improved use of preventive therapies for the disorder.
Grad student Ryan Schutte’s epilepsy research has earned him a Public Impact Fellowship
UC Irvine neuroscientists have developed a way to stop epileptic seizures with fiber-optic light signals, heralding a novel opportunity to treat the most severe manifestations of the brain disorder.
Professor and chair of anatomy & neurobiology awarded $1.2 million to research selective use of optical fibers in the brain.
