"It's good to know": experiences of gene identification and result disclosure in familial epilepsies.

Epilepsy research - 1 May 2015

Vears Danya F, Dunn Karen L, Wake Samantha A, Scheffer Ingrid E

Abstract excerpt

Recognition of the role of genetics in the epilepsies has increased dramatically, impacting on clinical practice across many epilepsy syndromes. There is limited research investigating the impact of gene identification on individuals and families with epilepsy. While research has focused on the impact of delivering genetic information to families at the time of diagnosis in genetic diseases more broadly, little...
