Epilepsy doesn't discriminate. It affects millions of people around the world, regardless of race, religion, size or age. That means that a reasonable proportion of the people affected are school students. 

In this episode, we'll be exploring epilepsy in schools and the challenges that students with epilepsy may face, as well as the Epilepsy Smart Schools program and how it can help.

Join us as we discuss common misunderstandings and stigmas around epilepsy, the ways in which the Epilepsy Smart Schools program can help schools create a safe and supportive environment for students with epilepsy, and tips and resources for educators and parents to support students with epilepsy.

If you have a child with epilepsy or are an educator interested in learning more about how to create an inclusive and supportive classroom environment, this episode is essential listening.

The brain is like an orchestra. A multitude of components plays their own part all coming together in a symphony of life. "Sometimes parts of the brain are forced to play a different song really fast, in perfect synchrony," says Dr Lila Landowski. "That is when a seizure happens." It's something that affects the lives of millions of people yet, as a society it's something most people don't understand and don't want to talk about. In Symphony of the Brain, we decode and demystify epilepsy, a condition that probably affects your friends and people you love.
