Track 1: COVID-19 AND EPILEPSY
The coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic is the defining global health crisis of our time and the greatest challenge we have faced since World War Two. Since its emergence in Asia late last year, the virus has spread to every continent except Antarctica. There is no evidence that having epilepsy alone makes people more likely to catch coronavirus or have more severe symptoms.
However, epilepsy is a very varied condition. Some people with epilepsy have other conditions alongside their epilepsy, which may put them at increased risk. Anyone with a compromised immune system or on-going medical challenges may have a higher risk of complications. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has included epilepsy on a list of conditions that may increase the risk of serious COVID-19 infection, likely because it is a chronic neurological condition. The UK has included people with chronic neurological conditions (without specifying epilepsy) as an “at risk” group.

Track 2: EPILEPSY AND TYPES OF SEIZURES
Epilepsy is a chronic non communicable and Neurological disorder of the brain that affects people of all ages. Epilepsy occurs when brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures. Seizures can affect any process your brain coordinates. Around 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, making it one of the most common neurological diseases globally.
Sub Tracks:
Track 3: NEUROBIOLOGY OF EPILEPSY
Epilepsy is a chronic disorder with diverse clinical characteristics that preclude a singular mechanism a neurological disorder marked by sudden recurrent episodes of seizures. A seizure occurs when part of the brain receives a burst of abnormal electrical signals that temporarily interrupts normal electrical brain function. It is one of the most common disorders of the nervous system and affects people of all ages, races, and ethnic background. The fact that multiple mechanisms exist is not surprising given the varied ways the normal nervous system controls this balance. In contrast, understanding seizures in brain of an individual with epilepsy is more difficult because seizures are typically superimposed on an altered nervous system.
Sub Tracks:
Track 4: EPILEPTOGENESIS
Epileptogenesis is the chronic process by which a normal brain develops epilepsy. Epilepsy is a chronic condition in which seizures occur. These changes to the brain occasionally cause neurons to fire in a hyper-synchronous manner, known as a seizure. Epileptogenesis can be triggered by genetic or acquired factors, and that can continue long after epilepsy diagnosis.
Sub Tracks:
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Stroke
- Cerebral Tumour
- Intracranial Hemorrhage
- Status epilepticus
- Seizures
- Epilepsy
Track 5: EPILEPSY IN PEDIATRICS
Epilepsy can begin at any time of life, but it is most commonly diagnosed in children and people over the age of 65. More than half of children with epilepsy will outgrow their seizures as they mature, while others may have seizures that continue into adulthood. Although epilepsy varies from person to person, children with epilepsy generally have seizures that respond well to medication. Epilepsy affects around 1 in every 200 children and young people under 18 Children having idiopathic. About two-thirds of all children with epilepsy outgrow their seizures by the time they are teenagers. However, it is important for parents to help their child maintain a healthy lifestyle and ensure regular medical visits.
Sub Tracks:
- Febrile convulsions
- Childhood absence epilepsy
- Epilepsy in gender & age
- Seizures in childhood
- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Track 6: EPILEPSY & PREGNANCY
Women with epilepsy have a number of unique concerns during pregnancy. Pregnant women with epilepsy constitute 0.5% of all pregnancies. Some antiepileptic drugs considered safe to the foetus may be associated with increased risk of seizures and maternal mortality. Factors such as epilepsy, anticonvulsant-induced teratogenicity, patient's genetic predisposition and the severity of convulsive disorder may attribute to adverse pregnancy outcome for the children of women with epilepsy.

Track 7: EPILEPSY SURGERY
Medications can control seizures in most people with epilepsy, but they don’t work for everyone. About 30% of people taking the drugs can’t tolerate the side effects. A person's type of seizures and where they begin in the brain are key to deciding what kind of surgery may help. Surgery has three main goals, they are Remove the area of the brain that causes seizures, Disrupt the nerve pathways that seizure impulses take through your brain, Implant a device to treat epilepsy. An operation on the brain can control seizures and improve your quality of life.
Sub Tracks:
- Focal Resection
- Lobectomy
- Multiple Subpial Transection
- Hemispherectomy
- Corpus callosotomy

Track 8: EPILEPSY DEVICES
Seizure medicines do not control seizures or can cause bothersome side effects in at least 3 out of 10 people with epilepsy. Seizure alert devices are useful in letting family members know if a seizure is occurring, especially parents of young children. The devices can notify nearby family or caregivers when a seizure occurs through alarms, phone calls or text alerts, depending on the device. They may also be able to give rescue medications or call for an ambulance if the seizure lasts too long or the person has repeated seizures.
Sub Tracks:
- Vagus Nerve Stimulation
- Seizure Alarms
- Medic Alert bracelet
- Anti-suffocation pillows
- Mattress devices
- Cameras
- Smart watches
Track 9: ADVANCED EPILEPSY DIAGNOSIS ASSESSMENT
Doctors have developed when an individual experience a seizure for the first time doctors advices him for EEG and observes for abnormality in the of EEG these tests differentiate patient from epileptic to non- epileptic. Research suggests that patients are only suggested to medicate for epilepsy only after their occurrence of second seizure. Many non-epileptic patients experience an unusual brain activity so; it is advised to record EEG while sleeping is preferable. Brain scans like CT- SCAN are used.
Sub Tracks:
- EEG
- CT SCAN
- Positron emission tomography
- Magnetic resonance imaging
- Single photon emission tomography
- Magneto encephalogram
- MRS
- Medical history
- Blood tests
Track 10: SEIZURE FIRST AID AND SAFETY
Epilepsy is a common condition of the brain in which a person has a tendency to have recurrent unprovoked seizures. About 1 out of 10 people may have a seizure during his or her lifetime. Safety precautions should be sensible and relevant to the person, with a balance between risk and restrictions. That means seizures are common, and one day you might need to help someone during or after a seizure. First aid for seizures is aimed at keeping the person safe until the seizure stops on its own.
Sub Tracks:
- Epileptic seizure first aid
- Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)
- Seizure emergencies
- Epilepsy and General Hazards
- Epilepsy and Safety
Track 11: SUDEP: SUDDEN UNEXPLAINED DEATH IN EPILEPSY
Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is a fatal complication of epilepsy. SUDEP accounts for 7–17% of deaths among people with epilepsy. This is the leading cause of death in people with uncontrolled seizures. Patients with uncontrolled seizures are at greatest risk for SUDEP, and experiencing tonic-clonic seizures, taking multiple antiepileptic drugs and having coexisting neurologic disease further increase the risk.
Sub Tracks:
- Uncontrolled or Frequent Seizures
- Generalized Convulsive Seizures
- Epilepsy in Childhood
- Missed doses of medicine
- Alcohol or Drugs
Track 12: METACOGNITIVE BELIEFS IN EPILEPSY
Emotional distress is common in people with epilepsy (PWE) for which efficacious interventions are required. Developing evidence-based treatments should be based on testable models of the psychological mechanisms maintaining Psychopathology. The Self-Regulatory Executive Function (S-REF) model proposes that maladaptive Metacognitive beliefs and processes are central to the development and maintenance of emotional distress. Although preliminary support exists for the role of metacognitive beliefs in emotional distress in PWE, their role has yet to be tested when controlling for the contribution made by illness perceptions.
Sub Tracks:
Track 13: COGNITIVE DISORDERS OF EPILEPSY
Cognitive disorders are common in patients with epilepsy. Their aetiology is multifactorial, being affected by the type and location of the epileptogenic lesion, Epileptic syndrome, type of seizures, and age of onset, frequency and severity. Timely diagnosis and treatment can help to reduce their impact on the patient's quality of life.
Sub Tracks:
- Temporary confusion
- A Staring Spell
- Uncontrollable jerking movements of the arms and legs
- Loss of consciousness or awareness
Track 14: PREVENTION & MANAGEMENT OF EPILEPSY
Preventing seizures and other problems must be part of seizure management. This means working together with your health care team to control seizures as best as possible. Maintaining Ketogenic diet, regular exercise can reduce the risk of Epilepsy, get plenty of sleep during nights and avoid using drugs and alcohol, taking seizure medicines regularly as problems taking medicines is one of the biggest risks for uncontrolled seizures. Epilepsy due to medication can be subsided by discontinuing the medicines, controlling stress, anxiety & other emotional issues can reduce the risk of Epilepsy. People can also adjust their lifestyle and environment to reduce the chance of seizures.
Sub Tracks:
- Anticonvulsants
- Anti-Epileptogenic Drugs
- Anti-Seizure Medications
- Vagus Nerve Stimulation
- Ketogenic Diet
Track 15: KETOGENIC DIET
The Ketogenic Diet (KD) is a modality of treatment used since the 1920s as a treatment for intractable epilepsy. The Ketogenic diet is a special high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet that helps to control seizures in some people with epilepsy. It is usually used in children with seizures that do not respond to medications. Evidence shows that KD and its variants are a good alternative for non-surgical pharmacoresistant patients with epilepsy of any age.
Sub Tracks:
- Classic Ketogenic Diet
- Medium chain triglyceride (MCT) diet
- Ketone Bodies: Anticonvulsant Effects
- Low Glycaemic Index Treatment (LGIT)
Track 16: NON-SURGICAL TREATMENT OF EPILEPSY
Epilepsy treatment has been applied to treat patients with intractable epilepsy for decades that are not controlled by neither antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) nor surgical candidates. If Antiepileptic drugs aren't controlling your seizures and brain surgery isn't suitable for you, there are other procedures that could help to control Epileptic Seizures.
Sub Tracks:
Track 17: HERBAL TREATMENTS FOR EPILEPSY
Before modern seizure medicines were developed, people with epilepsy and their doctors looked for a remedy in various herbs and combinations of herbs. Good news is, there are some natural remedies for seizures. Before advanced seizure medications were even discovered, doctors used herbs to treat this condition. Herbs for seizures are still used today because of their impressive effectiveness.

Track 19: IMMUNOMODULATORY TREATMENTS IN EPILEPSY
The role of Immunity and Inflammation appears to be an integral part of the pathogenic processes associated with some seizures, particularly with refractory epilepsy. Prompt treatment with Immunotherapy may lead to better outcomes. Immune treatment options for treatment of epilepsy include therapies such as corticosteroids, Immunoglobulin’s, Plasmapheresis, or steroid-sparing drugs such as azathioprine.

Track 20: EPILEPSY THERAPEUTICS & DRUG THERAPY
Zonisamide Ethosuximide is now available as rectal gel so that can be applied by family members for prolonged seizures. Drug combination sometimes lead to adverse effects like fatigue and loss of appetite so, combinations are often replaced by Monotherapy, unless monotherapy achieves desired results. When medication doesn’t achieve the required targets doctor can sometimes suggest for surgery 64% cases showed seizure free cases who undergone surgery.
Sub Tracks:
Track 21: HIGHLY MARKETED AND USED DRUGS FOR EPILEPSY
The global market for Antiepileptic drugs is driven by advancement in drugs modification. Over the past several periods, the number of available Antiepileptic drugs has more than doubled. Many of the presently available Antiepileptic drugs have basics pharmacokinetics and more small effects on liver metabolism that converts into a lower rate of side effects, The antiepileptic drug market is threatened by generic competition, which has risen dramatically in the face of patent expirations among various major branded Antiepileptic drugs. These are the major restraints for the Global antiepileptic drugs market.

Epilepsy can affect every one of us In Europe, at least 6 million people have epilepsy, and 15 million Europeans will have one seizure at some time in their lives. Nevertheless, in some countries of Europe, epilepsy is not recognized as a brain disorder and up to 40% of people with this condition may be untreated - the treatment gap. The global market for the industry was valued at $8.4 billion in 2017, and is forecasted to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.7% through 2023, when it will be worth an estimated $9.5 billion, according to the report Anti-Epileptic Drugs Market: Global Markets to 2023.
The Americas is the largest market for the epilepsy drugs due to the high prevalence of the disorder and the treatment options in the region, especially in the developed markets such as the US and Canada. Approximately 1% of the population in Canada has epilepsy, and 15,000 new cases are diagnosed each year.
North America is the largest market for anti-epileptic drugs manufacturing, accounting for 33.9% of the global market. It is followed by the Asia-Pacific region and Western Europe. Eastern Europe is expected to witness the fastest market growth, with CAGR of 5.4% through 2022. Second-generation anti-epileptic drugs accounted for the largest share of the market in 2017 at 44.3%. The highest growth is projected to come from third-generation antiepileptic drugs, which are forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 3.1%
The global epilepsy drugs market is primarily driven by the need of effective medications as the generic or branded drugs available in the market only provide symptomatic treatment. This has increased investment in the R&D of new drugs for epilepsy by companies such as Major players in the market include Pfizer Inc., UCB Biosciences Inc., GlaxoSmithKline PLC, Sanofi, Eisai Inc., Otsuka Pharmaceutical LTD., H. Lundbeck, Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Co., Shire PLC., Marinus Pharmaceuticals, SAGE Therapeutics, H.Lundbeck, and CURx Pharmaceuticals
Importance and Scope
Epilepsy medications can prevent seizures. An epileptic seizure is caused by hyperactivity in the brain's nerve cells. Anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) work by lowering this level of activity. Although AEDs do not cure the underlying causes of epilepsy, they can lower the risk of seizures. But they do not work in everyone. It is sometimes possible for people to stop taking medication if they haven't had a seizure for several years. The aim of drug treatment is to prevent epileptic seizures. If this is not possible, then the goal is to at least reduce the number of seizures.
Drug treatment helps to permanently prevent seizures in most people who have epilepsy. About 5 out of 10 people stop having seizures or have fewer seizures after taking the first drug they try. Overall, about 7 out of 10 people with epilepsy have no more seizures when they use medication. The 6 million people with epilepsy in Europe want to bring epilepsy “out of the shadows”.
Research related to epilepsy is remarkably broad and comprehensive, with programs in numerous university centers worldwide. On-going studies involve many scientific disciplines and areas of exploration.
