In this webinar, held in partnership with the Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Alliance, we dive into why epilepsy surgery is not a last resort. We explore emerging research around the efficacy and utility of surgical interventions and discuss guidelines on when families should seek out consultation about epilepsy surgery options.

Taylor Abel, MD, Chief of Pediatric Neurosurgery and the Surgical Director of the Pediatric Epilepsy Surgical Program at UPMC Hospital for Children in Pittsburgh. He is also on the American Epilepsy Society’s and Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Alliance’s board of directors.
Monika Jones, JD, CNP Founder and Executive Director of the Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Alliance and mom to Henry who has had multiple brain surgeries.
