The “In Search of Lost Time” Workshop is an annual event endorsed by the European Reference Network for Rare and Complex Epilepsies (ERN EpiCARE). Held in Rome, Italy, this workshop brings together experts to discuss advancements and challenges in epilepsy care.
Previous editions have addressed topics such as neonatal seizures, epileptogenesis, and the implementation of the WHO Directive on “Epilepsy and other neurological disorders” in Europe.
In Search of Lost Time - 6th Workshop, Rome
From 11th to 13th November, the “In Search of Lost Time 6” workshop was held at the Istituto Patristico Augustinianum in Rome, organized by Italian epilepsy centres and endorsed by the International League Against Epilepsy and ERN EpiCARE. This year’s edition covered the topics of fever-induced epilepsies, gene therapies in DEEs, and artificial intelligence in epilepsy care. For the first time, patient representatives rather than having a separate session were invited to share their views on the 3 topics and were actively involved in every session. The event concluded with presentations from early-career researchers, two of whom were supported by EpiCARE.
