A new model paves the way to unlocking the mysteries of familial focal epilepsy.

The Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics (DCMB) and the Institute for Heart and Brain Health (IHBH) at the University of Michigan Medical School are pleased to welcome Meng Wang, PhD, as a new Assistant Professor as of September 1, 2023.

Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a model for studying one type of familial epilepsy, opening the door to understanding—and eventually targeting—the mechanisms that lead to the disorder and its associated fatalities.
