Characterisation and automated quantification of induced seizure-related behaviours in <i>Xenopus laevis</i> tadpoles

2022-11-20

Abstract excerpt

Epilepsy, a clinical diagnosis characterized by paroxysmal episodes known as seizures, affects 1% of people worldwide. Safe and patient-specific treatment is vital and can be achieved by the development of rapid pre-clinical models of for identified epilepsy genes. Epilepsy can result from either brain injury or gene mutations, and can also be induced chemically. Xenopus laevis tadpoles could be a useful model fo...
