Editorial Note on Epilepsy

Sarilla Gowthami

Epilepsy is a disorder of the brain characterized by repeated seizures. A seizure is typically defined as a sudden alteration of behavior thanks to a short-lived change within the electrical functioning of the brain. Normally, the brain continuously generates tiny electrical impulses in an orderly pattern. These impulses follow neurons — the network of nerve cells within the brain — and throughout the entire body via chemical messengers called neurotransmitters.
