In recent years, with the regression of infectious diseases in developing countries, the focus has shifted more towards non communicable disorders. The prevalence of epilepsy in Africa is higher compared to other continents. Although this has been attributed to the high rate of infectious diseases, genetic contributions should not be ignored. Research in genetic epilepsy in Africa could well benefit from the decreasing cost of genetic analysis, and could contribute to further our knowledge on the spectrum of these diseases in Africa. The growing collaboration between African research institutions and those of developed countries offers a unique opportunity to boost research in Africa and improve our global understanding of human disease, thus leading to the development of better therapeutic approaches.</p>","PeriodicalId":91147,"journal":{"name":"North African and Middle East epilepsy journal","volume":"3 5","pages":"5-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4580280/pdf/nihms-701155.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"34041505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
