Apparently, there is a new medicine in the works, Retigabine, that works on potassium channels........it evidently helps to open them up better.....
If the potassium channels are blocked, or de-polarized, seizures can occur......this presentation is a little boring, but still interesting at the same time.....
3 different presenters from 3 different places in the world. Having done research on this. Neat, I think.
