We were delighted to recently join with our colleagues in FutureNeuro for the official launch of the Neuroadapt programme.

This €2m initiative – funded by the European Commission’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) 2023 COFUND and FutureNeuro – will involve bringing 11 postdoctoral researchers from around the world to Ireland, equipping them with the specialised skills needed to advance research into neurological conditions such as epilepsy.

Over the years of supporting people with epilepsy and their families, at the turn of the year we often receive calls from people with epilepsy who have had breakthrough seizures over the festive period. This is often because routines have changed dramatically over a short period, or a person is overcome with the stresses that the Christmas period brings – amongst other factors.
