Congratulations to the award recipients at the annual Florey Awards! @TheFlorey @spyroujames
We’re fundraising to support PURA Foundation Australia, and you can help by making a donation. Every contribution helps make a difference for families affected by PURA syndrome. Thank you for your generosity. melbmara2025.grassrootz.com/purafoundation… @PURA_foundation @TheFlorey @EpilepsySocAus
Despite rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders such as genetic epilepsies / DEEs being well suited to n of 1 trials there have only been a handful performed. N of 1 trials allow assessment of promising treatments in rare monogenetic epilepsies. #GETA2025
Join our Epilepsy public lecture this Wednesday March 26th to hear about how we are making a difference in childhood epilepsy research. @TheFlorey, @CureEpilepsy, @EpilepsySocAus, @epilepsy_fdn, @CureGABAa, @AmEpilepsySoc events.humanitix.com/public-lecture…?
