Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures.
65 million people worldwide live with epilepsy.
The need for more research is clear: People with uncontrollable seizures frequently face a lifetime of challenges including misunderstandings about epilepsy, discrimination, and other epilepsy-related problems. Mortality rates among people with epilepsy are three times the rate of the general population, and sudden death rates are more than twenty times higher.
