Activity Overview: James H. Horner was a medical student who died shortly before his expected graduation from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. His medical degree was awarded posthumously in June 1988. Dr. Horner’s family established this distinguished professorship in his name “to promote education, compassion, and academic excellence in the practice of medicine”. Join us as we welcome expert speakers who will share their knowledge of the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, as well as provide guidelines and resources for anyone who is impacted by this neurological disease.
Objectives:
- Review relevant information about seizures, treatments, and other coping strategies to support those impacted by epilepsy.
- Facilitate in-person exchanges between epilepsy specialists and the larger community.
- Provide tangible resources about epilepsy for healthcare providers and community stakeholders.
