Evaluating the efficacy of prototype antiseizure drugs using a preclinical pharmacokinetic approach

Objective Pharmacokinetics (PK) of a drug drive its exposure, efficacy, and tolerability. A thorough preclinical PK assessment of antiseizure medications (ASMs) is therefore essential to evaluate...

I am pleased to share my latest manuscript in @Brain1878 with @CarvillLab. In this study, we demonstrate a novel method to functionally characterize variants of uncertain significance in the epilepsy-associated gene SZT2. academic.oup.com/brain/advan… 1/10

mTORC1 functional assay reveals SZT2 loss-of-function variants and a founder in-frame deletion

Biallelic variants in SZT2 are associated with early-onset epilepsy, but identifying pathogenic missense variants has proven challenging. Calhoun et al. de
