Anti-inflammatory treatments to prevent seizures and the development of epilepsy
Development of triheptanoin as a new anticonvulsant treatment - reviewed on Youtube.
Dr. Borges together with Professor Terence O’Brien, started a clinical trial of triheptanoin in epilepsy patients in July 2012 in Melbourne. The trial is funded by the Epilepsy Therapy Project through the American Epilepsy Research Foundation,
