The KCNT1 Epilepsy Foundation is proud to have the support of a diverse group of experienced academic and industry scientists and pediatric epilepsy neurologists on our Scientific Advisory Board. Bringing these great minds together we are sure to gain insights needed to find disease-modifying methods to cure or halt the progression of this disease.
If you are interested in joining our advisory board, joining our reference list of experts, or would like to participate in research or submit an LOI* to help find treatments and a cure for KCNT1 please contact Justin@kcnt1epilepsy.org
