Muir Maxwell Epilepsy Centre

The £2 million investment in our 2024 Research Awards will support 14 new projects involving 58 researchers and collaborators across 12 institutions in the UK and internationally. Learn about the exciting projects in this short film: youtu.be/rn1-5vXIbqw #NationalEpilepsyWeek

Now Bartlomiej Chybowski, PhD student at the @EpilepsyInst University of Edinburgh Doctoral Training Centre is presenting on "Single machine learning classifier pipeline to detect seizures in different patient datasets” #EmergingLeaders @bartchybowski

Nice tweeprint for @jamnor23's work on using machine learning to identify seizure onset zones from non-seizure data. Exciting use of the quantitative information contained in clinically used electrical stimulation paradigms.

Can a single switch from “A” to “T” in a gene regulating brain function result in epilepsy? Read this article by Yaseen Almeerali that explains how random genetic alterations can give rise to devastating disorders. ➡️edin.ac/3vD1SHL @MMECEdinburgh #PurpleDay

In 🟣 today for #PurpleDay to raise awareness about #epilepsy About 1 in 100 people live with epilepsy @MMECEdinburgh

An interesting read on how basic sciences research is crucial to find treatments for genetic disorders such as CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder (CDD), a rare form of epilepsy. Article by James Hogg @MMECEdinburgh ➡️edin.ac/3VA9DZz #NoEpilepsy #BetterEpilepsy #PurpleDay

On this #PurpleDay, learn more about how living with epilepsy might affect one's daily life. Article by PhD student Zita Francsics ➡️edin.ac/3TxoX6I @MMECEdinburgh #PurpleDay2024 #NoEpilepsy #BetterEpilepsy #EpilepsyAwareness

Happy #PurpleDay2024 from the Louros Lab and some of the @osterlab at @MMECEdinburgh Very proud to work with this talented group of researchers on the molecular mechanisms of #epilepsy @EdinUniNeuro @sidb_edinburgh
