We look at all ages of man, from the premature new-born to the elderly. The Unit houses the Wellcome Trust Laboratory for MEG studies. There is an active Photosensitive Epilepsy Clinic in which we work with patients newly diagnosed with epilepsy as well as those with chronic epilepsy unresponsive to conventional anti-convulsants. Research into video material in TV advertising and games has revealed new ways of preventing seizures in at-risk individuals. The group is funded by research councils, the EEC and by charities such as the Wellcome Trust and the Royal Society.
