Genetic contribution to common epilepsies.

Current opinion in neurology - 1 Apr 2011

Sisodiya Sanjay M, Mefford Heather C

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We review key findings over the past year in the genetics of the common epilepsies and consider their impact on the field. RECENT FINDINGS: There have been important discoveries across two major aspects of genetics of the common epilepsies. Firstly, the first genome-wide association study in epilepsy has been published, for the focal epilepsies. With reasonable power to detect even modest...
