Do you have a family history of epilepsy?

If the answer is yes and you would be interested in helping find a genetic cause for familial epilepsy, then at the Wales Epilepsy Research Network would like to hear from you. The research is based in Wales, but families across the UK can take part.

The purpose of the study is to find new genes that cause epilepsy. It is hoped that the findings of the study will eventually benefit not only families with a history of epilepsy, but also individuals with epilepsy more generally.

To take part families must have four or more affected members, or have siblings who have epilepsy.
