For healthcare professionals
A direct path to epilepsy education and collaboration.
Connect with regional epilepsy expertise through one flagship meeting and one focused case-discussion series. Both are designed for practical learning, direct access and stronger clinician-to-clinician relationships.
Regional epilepsy connections
Choose the pediatric or adult pathway.
Each connection separates patient scheduling from clinician referral information and links directly to the official hospital program.

When should the pathway change?
Failure of two tolerated, appropriately chosen and used antiseizure medication schedules to achieve sustained seizure freedom meets the ILAE consensus definition of drug-resistant epilepsy.
Review the ILAE resource ↗01Two appropriate medication trials without sustained seizure freedom
02Persistent disabling events or medication-related burden
03Uncertain diagnosis, discordant data or changing seizure pattern
04Developmental, cognitive, safety or quality-of-life impact

Why a comprehensive epilepsy evaluation may be worth discussing when seizures continue after two appropriately selected medicines.
The question behind epilepsy imaging
A useful imaging conversation focuses on what the scan can answer and whether additional information would change the plan.
