Abstract

A large proportion of those affected by epilepsy live in resource-poor areas. The Epilepsy surgery in low-resource settings Task Force from the ILAE undertook a survey in Africa and Latin America to identify fellowships in Epilepsy and EEG as well as in Epilepsy Surgery. The results revealed a significant shortage of training programs in these two regions of the globe.

期刊介绍： Epilepsy & Behavior is the fastest-growing international journal uniquely devoted to the rapid dissemination of the most current information available on the behavioral aspects of seizures and epilepsy. Epilepsy & Behavior presents original peer-reviewed articles based on laboratory and clinical research. Topics are drawn from a variety of fields, including clinical neurology, neurosurgery, neuropsychiatry, neuropsychology, neurophysiology, neuropharmacology, and neuroimaging. From September 2012 Epilepsy & Behavior stopped accepting Case Reports for publication in the journal. From this date authors who submit to Epilepsy & Behavior will be offered a transfer or asked to resubmit their Case Reports to its new sister journal, Epilepsy & Behavior Case Reports.
