Rare Epilepsies Webinar on November 6

Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with a rare epilepsy including: Aicardi Syndrome, CDKL5 Disorder, Dravet Syndrome, Dup15q Syndrome, Hypothalamic Hamartoma, Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, Ohtahara Syndrome, PCDH19 Female Epilepsy, Phelan-McDermid Syndrome or Tuberous Sclerosis Complex? If so, you are not alone. Though each syndrome is different, patients and caregivers with rare epilepsies share many common seizures types, symptoms, and side effects.

During this webinar you will learn more about rare epilepsies and the serious risks associated with these syndromes, including sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Discover the important work being done by the Rare Epilepsy Network (REN) to identify better prevention and treatment options and how you can get involved by enrolling in the REN database.

The Epilepsy Foundation SUDEP Institute is a proud partner in the PAME Webinar series.
