Although learning about SUDEP can be overwhelming, it's important to talk to your healthcare team about your risks and prevention. Dr. Patel and Dr. Privitera discuss why it is important to talk about SUDEP. #StartTheSUDEPConvo Link: https://t.co/4DTfp2oPvd
My colleague Anli Liu (not on twitter) is looking for a motivated RA to join her team. This is a great opportunity at @nyulangone in the Liu lab https://t.co/uKu98HtPEg. Please contact [email protected] with CV and cover letter !
In the United States there are:
- 3.4M+ people with epilepsy
- 1M people with epilepsy not treatable with meds
To help those 1M+ people, we're developing a state-of-the-art implantable monitoring device with an $8M grant from the @NIH.

Dreier et al. report that epilepsy is associated with a reduction in lifespan of 10–12 years. Increased mortality was found across almost all causes of death examined. https://t.co/VNgLKhqcDV
We're accepting applications for early career grants! These grants support trainees, fellows, + newly independent investigators working across the spectrum of #epilepsy research. Proposals are due 1/14/. Learn more and apply: https://t.co/LxKOhLCUq8 #academictwitter#neurotwitter
@dfreedman7 @RebeccaFasanoMD @omar_danoun@AlexandraEid hah. luckily I shaved my beard off. Also, someone asked me what I knew about infantile seizures so soon people will be asking me if I am *the* Dan Freedman.
Some late-onset #epilepsy may be preventable. Recent work from community-based longitudinal cohort studies like FHS, ARIC, Rotterdam Study, & Cardiovascular Health Study has helped our understanding of causes & consequences of #epilepsy in older adults. @bmcneurology@nyuFACES
