📢Final chance to shape the work of the Institute!
The deadline for our Capacity Building survey has been extended to 11th June. The survey aims to assess the current capacity in epilepsy research and help us gain a better understanding of the ecosystem: https://t.co/2obJHdRy0p

Fantastic insights from Prof Stephanie Schorge on a successful career in epilepsy research: (1) Effective science communication is key, (2) collaborative working leads to the greatest impact, (3) set up a mentor-mentee relationship that supports independence. @ResearchNetERI

Anne-Mari Kantanen @KantanenAM at #KES2024: "Acute status epilepticus is like the Beatles - emergency medicine & neurology with pre-planned protocols. A small, well-trained band." -- "Superrefractory Status Epilepticus is a philharmonic orchestra - hardcore neurology + epileptology, neurophysiology, neuroradiology & immunology in neuro ICU. A bigger orchestra playing well together" #TheArtOfFinnishEfficiency @UEF_BRU @KuopioEpilepsy @kuo_brain_mind @Pshyvinvointi

Outcomes beyond seizures matter to people with epilepsy and healthcare professionals: anxiety, mood, sleep, functional status, medication effects, HRQOL and more @EPSETproject @COMETinitiative @ICHOM_ORG @IlaeWeb @ResearchNetERI @AmEpilepsySoc @ILAEBRITISH @yesILAE @epilepsy_liv

[James Mitchell @_JWMitchell]

Thanks @KuopioEpilepsy @UniEastFinland and @rkalviainen for the invitation - great to champion the voice of people with epilepsy defining 'meaningful outcomes'. There are multiple international consensus exercises and work to do on trial readiness in the precision medicine era.

[Kuopio Epilepsy Symposium @KuopioEpilepsy]

✨James Mitchell ✨provided insight about 'Meaningful epilepsy outcomes'. Epilepsy research requires world-wide team effort. @EPSETproject goal is to develop a core outcome set for adult epilepsy trials.

Arrived in a snowy Finland for the 2024 @KuopioEpilepsy symposium. Fascinating start with an overview of historical context by @SShorvon. The ‘neurological trait’ concept from 19th century is strikingly similar to our current conceptualisation of epilepsy related ‘co-morbidity’.

[Epilepsy Research Institute @EpilepsyInst]

Researchers in Liverpool are designing a study to see if Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) can reduce seizures in #epilepsy. They would like to hear from anyone affected by the condition - please complete this survey, which should take roughly 20 minutes. https://t.co/S7O1BO7byc

[Epilepsy Research Institute @EpilepsyInst]

The @EpilepsyInst welcomes Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt's commitment of £45m to support charity-funded early career researchers, as outlined in yesterday’s budget. The funding will support research by medical charities into conditions including #epilepsy: https://t.co/qmw2qhXdEL

[Epilepsy Research Institute @EpilepsyInst]

The Institute’s regular givers are enabling pioneering lab-based and clinical research that will unlock new treatments and understanding for the 1 in 100 people living with epilepsy.
Together, we can radically advance research into epilepsy. Thank you.

Fantastic evening on Wednesday for the launch of the UK #EpilepsyResearchInstitute @10DowningStreet. Visit https://t.co/m4Q8NdMmp7 to find out more!

[Tony Marson FMedSci @TonyMarson2]

On my way back from really successful launch of our Epilepsy Research Institute at Number 10. Much more to come!

[#Every1EndingEpilepsy @Every1Epilepsy]

#Every1EndingEpilepsy Programme Director @TonyMarson2 and @maxinesmeaton have just announced the launch of the #EpilepsyResearchInstitute at @ILAEBRITISH. The Institute will serve as a central hub for the epilepsy research community, find out more here: https://t.co/zG9etfpwQl

[Colin Dunkley 🦋 @drcolindunkley]

Thanks @youngepilepsy ! Seeing this new ASM guide with life-size tablet piccies has filled me with joy. Will be so useful as children can make informed choices and recognise what taking. (Before the tablets were shown with an eye-watering range of scales!)

[James Mitchell @_JWMitchell]

Thanks @EANeurology for the opportunity to present the work of the @ICHOM_ORG Epilepsy Working Group's consensus process.
