Seizures and Epilepsy: An Overview for Neuroscientists
Carl E. Stafstrom (Johns Hopkins University, Johns Hopkins Medicine), Lionel Carmant (Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Sainte-Justine, Université de Montréal)
Abstract: Epilepsy is one of the most common and disabling neurologic conditions, yet we have an incomplete understanding of the detailed pathophysiology and, thus, treatment rationale for much of epilepsy. This article reviews the clinical aspects of seizures and epilepsy with the goal of providing neuroscientists an introduction to aspects that might be amenable to scientific investigation. Seizures and epilepsy are defined, diagnostic methods are reviewed, various clinical syndromes are discussed, and aspects of differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis are considered to enable neuroscientists to formulate basic and translational research questions.
