Researchers use music model to decipher epilepsy
Researchers describe a music based model to illustrate how a seizure disrupts brain function using a Mozart piece performed with a repeated dissonant note while sections of the orchestra alternate the tempo and texture. The experiment aims to educate the public about epilepsy and its aftereffects as the piece gradually returns to recognizability.

KU Researchers Tackle Genetics and Epilepsy in Medical Studies
KU Medical Center researchers pursue diverse topics from inherited kidney disease to Prader Willi syndrome and brain neuron damage from AIDS. Roby blends low dose chemotherapy with gene therapy for ovarian cancer while Grantham tests MRI for polycystic kidney disease progression. Tash studies gravity's effect on sperm motility and potential space life benefits for ranchers and poultry. Funding rose to 53.5 million from NIH in 2001 with 43.6 million in 2000, and a PBS documentary on epilepsy aims to boost awareness and funding for research.
