Student to undergo brain stimulation surgery to end seizures
Zachary Charalampous, a Ross S. Sterling freshman, awaits a ground breaking brain stimulation surgery after years of epilepsy. The procedure will place a neurostimulator under the skull to detect seizure patterns and deliver pulses to disrupt them. He already rides Vagus Nerve Stimulation with limited nocturnal seizures and hopes for seizure freedom to pursue driving and a medical career. National Epilepsy Awareness Month highlights the condition.
