Working in active collaboration, this group is comprised of researchers from the Departments of Neurology, Pediatric Neurology (together with the neuropsychology unit), Pathology and Radiology. Together, this subgroup runs clinical research and services. With contributions from the Nuclear Medicine and Psychiatry departments, this subgroup aims to establish an ideal clinical and surgical treatment center for epilepsy, supported by the reorganized EEG video monitoring unit and intracranial recording methods that have been developed. In addition to improving current clinical research and establishing a database recording system, this subgroup plans to implement a broad study on the genetic aspects of epilepsy in collaboration with the department of molecular biology. Research on surgical material, detailed molecular and physiological studies, and broad pathophysiological research on experimental epilepsies are all expected to be done.
