Revolutionizing Epilepsy Care: Gut–Brain Axis Insights and Microbiota Therapies Inspired by Dr. Ghazaleh Ghorbannezhad’s Research

Image
  Featuring the Work of Dr. Ghazaleh Ghorbannezhad — Neuroscience Research Assistant, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences (MUMS), Iran Epilepsy remains one of the most challenging neurological disorders worldwide, affecting over 50 million individuals. While modern antiepileptic medications have transformed clinical outcomes, nearly one-third of patients continue to experience drug-resistant seizures, significantly affecting quality of life. This persistent therapeutic gap has fueled a global search for innovative, non-invasive, and accessible treatment strategies. One of the most groundbreaking directions to emerge in recent years is the exploration of the gut–brain axis —a sophisticated, bidirectional communication system linking the gastrointestinal tract to the central nervous system. Once considered unrelated systems, the gut and brain are now understood to be deeply interconnected through neural, metabolic, hormonal, and immune pathways. Intriguingly, disturbances within...
