Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy Research Consortium

The Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) Research Consortium is a collaborative effort that studies why some people with epilepsy unexpectedly die, often without clear cause. Researchers analyze data, genetics, and health factors to understand the risk and underlying mechanisms. The goal is to identify ways to prevent these tragic deaths by improving treatment, safety, and awareness for individuals with epilepsy.
