Scientists dig into brain genes to unlock epilepsy mysteries
NCT ID NCT04917939
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at gene activity in brain tissue removed during surgery from 10 people with temporal lobe epilepsy and hippocampal sclerosis. The goal is to find which genes are linked to the disease and may help predict outcomes. No new treatment is being tested; instead, researchers aim to better understand the disease at the molecular level.
