Epilepsy affects 5% of people at some time in their lives. We want to better understand the genes that cause epilepsy and how epilepsy progresses in different people (‘natural history’). An understanding of genes and natural history will help with new treatments, better counselling and better diagnostic tests.
Anyone who has had a seizure or has a family member who has had a seizure is welcome to take part.
We also study conditions that are related to seizures, such as speech, learning or behavioural problems. These can happen with or without seizures. Anyone who has a related condition or has a family member with a related condition is also welcome to take part.
If you agree to be in this project, we may ask you to do things like fill out questionnaires, give blood or saliva samples, do tests in hospital and allow us to access your medical records.
