Epilepsy affects about 0.5-1% of the world's population (about 50,000,000 individuals) and the main goal of its treatment is to eliminate seizures without creating side effects.       Despite numerous advances in the treatment of epilepsy and the approval of several new antiepileptic drugs, about 30% of patients continue to experience recurrent seizures which are medically, physically, and/or socially disabling. The editor of this volume hopes that by bridging the gap between the fundamental biology of epilepsy and its clinical implications he might spur further research and treatment options.Contemporary Clinical Neuroscience,2627-535XNeurosciencesPsychiatryNeurology Clinical psychologyNeuroscienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B18006Psychiatryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H53003Neurologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H36001Clinical Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y12005Neurosciences.Psychiatry.Neurology .Clinical psychology.Neurosciences.Psychiatry.Neurology.Clinical Psychology.610612.8616.8616.89Striano Pasqualeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298291803321Epilepsy Towards the Next Decade2500509UNINA
