Chapters Covering Different Aspects of Epilepsy Genetics

The book chapters cover different aspects of epilepsy genetics, starting with the "classical" concept of epilepsies as ion channel disorders.

The second part of the book gives credit to the fact that by now non-ion channel genes are recognized as equally important causes of epilepsy.

The concluding chapters are designed to offer the reader insight into current methods in epilepsy research. Each chapter is self-contained and deals with a selected topic of interest.
