      I study childhood epilepsy syndromes. I’m not 100% focused in children’s brains, I started my studies on adult brains but then became really interested in angelman syndrome so because this disease starts at a young age (usually around 3 years old) I now mainly focus on the neuroscience of children’s brains. But angelman syndrome is still present in adults so it’s something I could move into
