In the last two decades there have been many significant advances with regard to the genetics of human epilepsies. Knowledge of the mutations responsible for inherited human epilepsies not only will help in a better diagnosis and understanding of the mechanisms involved in epileptogenesis and their inheritance, but also will result in the development of better and safer antiepileptic drugs, discovery of novel therapeutic modalities, improved genetic counseling, and perhaps even prevention of epilepsies. The overall impact of these genetic discoveries across different populations and cultures will perhaps be beneficial to improving the lives of the millions affected by these diverse but common brain disorders.
