In Search of Lost Time 6

The 6th edition of the Rome Workshop, In Search of Lost Time, will convene clinicians, researchers, patient advocates, and industry stakeholders to tackle some of the most urgent and forward-looking challenges in the epilepsy field. This year’s workshop will explore three major themes:

• Fever-induced epilepsies, with a focus on genetic underpinnings, clinical syndromes such as Dravet and GEFS+, translational models, and treatment strategies;
• Clinical readiness for antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) and gene therapies, aiming to prepare the epilepsy community for emerging trials in monogenic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs);
• Artificial Intelligence in epilepsy, highlighting its role in seizure prediction, outcome forecasting, and personalized care.

Through a multidisciplinary approach and active engagement with young epileptologists and patient representatives, the Rome Workshop continues its mission of fostering collaboration and advancing innovative solutions for people living with epilepsy.
