Epilepsy affects around 50 million people worldwide according to the WHO, making it one of the most common neurological conditions. This chronic disease is characterized by the occurrence of epileptic seizures which reflect a sudden and transient disruption of the electrical activity of the brain. 70% of people with epilepsy might be seizure-free if their condition was properly diagnosed and treated. The risk of premature death in people with epilepsy is almost three times higher than in the general population.
