summaryMost Mendelian epilepsy genes code for ion channels, but the contribution of common single nucleotide polymorphisms is unknown. Dimitri Kullmann will present work on calcium and potassium channel mutations associated with ataxia and epilepsy, and a sodium channel polymorphism associated with differences in antiepileptic drug dosage.
