There’s still time to sign up for our online workshop, designed for healthcare professionals in neurology, clinical neurophysiology, and EEG/MEG services.

We’re working alongside researchers at Cardiff University / Prifysgol Caerdydd to develop an innovative smartphone tool for EEG and MEG, and we’re looking to hear from professionals with hands-on experience in this area. Your input will help ensure the tool is relevant, practical, and shaped by real clinical needs.

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh are studying epilepsy in children under 5. Seizures in babies can be difficult to recognise and are often mistaken for normal behaviour.

Their goal is to develop a “remote” EEG that families can use in the community, whether at home or at the GP. They’re looking to hear from families with experience of EEG testing: what worked well, and what could be improved.
