Our Seminar Series

The Seminar Series is a set of consumer-focused educational meetings that address timely issues affecting those with epilepsy and their families. These seminars feature presentations by neurologists and other professionals on relevant epilepsy related topics.

Seminars are held throughout the year and are about an hour long, which includes a Q&A session with the speaker.

All seminars are hosted virtually via Zoom. Everyone who registers will receive an email with a link or phone number to dial to join the seminar. This information is usually sent the day before.

The Seminar Series is free and anyone is welcome to attend. 1 in 26 people will have develop epilepsy in their lifetime, and 1 in 10 people will have seizure in their lifetime, so these webinars are useful for everyone!
