Check out our newest Treatment Talk ([link removed]) , that premiered on CURE Epilepsy’s YouTube channel ([link removed]) earlier today! This Treatment Talk discusses seizure emergencies and the different delivery methods and treatment options for the current rescue medications. The talk features Dr. James Wheless, a neurologist and researcher whose research is focused on pediatric anti-epileptic drug development, the ketogenic diet, epilepsy surgery, and non-invasive brain mapping (TMS, MEG). Dr. Wheless is the Professor and Chief of Pediatric Neurology and the Le Bonheur Chair in Pediatric Neurology at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UTHSC) in Memphis. He also serves as Director of the Neuroscience Institute and the Le Bonheur Comprehensive Epilepsy Program for the Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital (LCH).

He will be joined by Karen Barnette, mother to a patient of Dr. Wheless’ diagnosed with Dravet syndrome, and who is thankful for the new rescue therapies that have become available to epilepsy patients and their families. Viewers will learn about seizure emergencies, the different delivery options that are available for current rescue medications, and how the recent medications on the market have become more convenient and effective treatment options for seizure emergencies.
