Hi Everyone,
What does anyone know about stem cell theropy for Epilepsy?? I had one of my doc's suggest this to me today - not my neurologist - and I am just curious what anyone knows. Thanks so much!:e::e::e:
 
It's still in the research stage. (Quote below is from a 2012 article at the link).

The field is still wide open with a number of very promising results but there are also some major challenges that will need to be addressed prior to considering clinical applications for epilepsy.
