DESCRIPTION 
The target audience are medical neurologists (staff, residents, fellows), neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, and neuroradiologists involved in the care of persons with epilepsy of all ages.  The conferences are case-based.  In each case discussed, the individual patient's history, EEG data, neuroimaging, neuropsychologic evaluations are presented and an individualized surgical plan and proposal provided at the end.  The audience then participates in discussion regarding the relative merits of the proposed intervention, and offer suggestions for modifications.  In some cases, a need for further work-up or non-surgical treatment options are identified.  Input provided by participants is always evidence-based, and relevant articles are distributed during and following presentations where appropriate to enhance knowledge among participants.  

Live-Streamed; Weekly on Thursday from 6:30-8:30 a.m.
