The Parker Lab aims to identify mechanisms involved in early brain
development that, when disrupted, result in cortical malformation,
epilepsy, and neurocognitive dysfunction. By understanding
elements of this process, we are working to devise targeted
therapies which can be delivered early, even during fetal
development, with the goal of preventing the progression of
disease rather than simply treating seizures and other symptoms
after dysfunctional networks have already formed.
