Epilepsy in 2014. Novel and large collaborations drive advances in epilepsy

Piero Perucca et al. Nat Rev Neurol. 2015 Feb.

Abstract

In 2014, novel, large-scale collaborative efforts and frameworks resulted in major advances in the epilepsy field, from publication of a new definition of epilepsy to important discoveries regarding aetiology, pathophysiology and management. These collaborative works provide a platform from which further advances are anticipated, and a model for future research.
