New research is uncovering how sleep quality after traumatic brain injury (TBI) may be the key to preventing seizures and reducing the risk of post-traumatic epilepsy.

Emerging biomarkers and genetic profiles may help identify patients with high risk for sudden epileptic death.

The brain may inadvertently "learn" to have seizures by treating them like important memories to be stored, according to new research from Mayo Clinic. The study, published in the Journal of ...

Comorbid sleep disorders among patients with epilepsy are linked to higher SUDEP risk scores and all-cause mortality.

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Feb. 23—ROCHESTER — A recent Mayo Clinic study looked at a process in the brain that, following a seizure, might reinforce future ...

New research from the Epilepsy Phenome/Genome Project shows that genetics plays a role in sleep/wake timing of seizures. Researchers studied 1,395 individuals with epilepsy in families containing ...

The seizures associated with epilepsy can be a danger to the patient as well as the people around them in some cases. Dr Chawla explains how to lower risk.

The unpredictable, debilitating nature of a seizure can be frightening, for both the person experiencing it and anyone watching nearby. In that moment, control often slips away as muscles stiffen, ...

ROCHESTER, Minn. — The brain may inadvertently "learn" to have seizures by treating them like important memories to be stored, according to new research from Mayo Clinic. The study, published in the ...

Sleep could encode epileptic seizures in the brain by repurposing the processes used to solidify memories, potentially making seizures harder to treat or prevent, new research suggests. But the new ...
