Great presentations by the Reid lab postdocs, Dr Khaing Phyu Aung and Dr Lauren Bleakley, about GABRD and HCN1 Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy, respectively, at the Turbo Talks today.
Despite rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders such as genetic epilepsies / DEEs being well suited to n of 1 trials there have only been a handful performed. N of 1 trials allow assessment of promising treatments in rare monogenetic epilepsies. #GETA2025
