.@EpilepsyRUK Chief Executive @maxinesmeaton comments in the Guardian. She welcomes the developments in stem cell & gene therapy research, saying they offer much hope, but strategic investment is needed to address chronic underfunding in epilepsy research theguardian.com/society/2023…

Two epilepsy patients’ seizures greatly reduced in stem cell therapy trial

Early results show promise in trial involving injection of lab-grown inhibitory neurons into brain
