Epilepsy is one of the most common and disabling neurologic conditions, yet we
have an incomplete understanding of the detailed pathophysiology and, thus,
treatment rationale for much of epilepsy. This article reviews the clinical
aspects of seizures and epilepsy with the goal of providing neuroscientists an
introduction to aspects that might be amenable to scientific investigation.
Seizures and epilepsy are defined, diagnostic methods are reviewed, various
clinical syndromes are discussed, and aspects of differential diagnosis,
treatment, and prognosis are considered to enable neuroscientists to formulate
basic and translational research questions.
