Epilepsy Sparks Insights

Developing epilepsy through tapeworms - Professor Ley Sander


Listen Later

Meet Professor Ley Sander, a consultant neurologist at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, London, with a special interest in epilepsy.

Ley is Head of the Department of Clinical and Experimental Epilepsy at UCL Queen Square and works across the continents to empower those in LMICs (Low-Middle Income Countries) regarding epilepsy prevention, treatment, and seizure control. Ley also has a talent for photography!

We talk about how Ley got into his passion for helping people affected by epilepsy, his work today, and some of the clear obstacles when it comes to minimising epilepsy cases - such as clean water.
