I'm grateful to work with an incredible team at @UCLAHealth tackling Hemimegalencephaly (HME) and its challenges. Our progress builds upon the foundational work of giants in the field, striving for better patient outcomes.
Hemimegalencephaly (HME) is a rare disorder that can result in drug-resistant epilepsy. Dr. Aria Fallah @a__fallah & colleagues reported on 56 pediatric patients with HME-related drug-resistant epilepsy who underwent hemispheric surgery at UCLA. Read more: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3787…

Today is #PurpleDay - a time to raise awareness about epilepsy. So let's spread the word that #epilepsy is a chronic noncommunicable brain disorder that affects around 50 million people of all ages worldwide. ilae.org @yesILAE

It's time to remove 'destructive epilepsy surgery' from our lexicon. It inaccurately frames life-changing procedures in a negative light and can deter patients from beneficial treatment options. Let's promote a more constructive and hopeful dialogue around epilepsy care.
