Summary
This study tests a new DNA technology called long-read genome sequencing in 20 children with severe epilepsy whose standard genetic tests came back normal. The goal is to find hidden genetic causes that standard tests miss, which could lead to better treatments and genetic counseling. The study does not offer a cure or treatment, but aims to improve diagnosis and understanding of the disease.
