Hope for epilepsy patients: Mark Cook

“Are there better ways that we can treat epilepsy?”

Imagine living with the knowledge that at any moment — perhaps at work, or while driving — you might become incapacitated. This is the reality for many who live with epilepsy — but as Professor Mark Cook explains at TEDxUWollongong — there is new hope for this to change, as a promising treatment is being developed that may stop seizures in their tracks.
