This project focuses on understanding focal cortical dysplasia type II, a condition causing drug-resistant epilepsy in children. By developing a mosaic cortical organoid model, it aims to investigate the developmental origins and mechanisms of this condition, potentially leading to new treatment strategies.
Epilepsy, a global neurological disorder affecting around 70 million people, poses a significant medical challenge, with one-third of patients facing drug-resistant epilepsy.
Cortical malformations such as focal cortical dysplasia type II (FCDII) are associated with pediatric drug-resistant epilepsy for which surgical intervention serves as the main therapeutic approach for seizure control. FCDII is marked by cortical dyslamination and the presence of abnormal cytomegalic cells.
