Genetic architecture of heritable leaf microbes
Host-associated microbiomes are shaped by both their environment and host genetics, and often impact host performance. The scale of host genetic variation important to microbes is largely unknown yet fundamental to the community assembly of host ...

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Abstract We report two cases of dual genetic diagnoses involving Lafora disease (LD) and co‐occurring neurodevelopmental disorders caused by pathogenic variants in TRIO and SHANK3, respectively. LD is an ultra‐rare, autosomal recessive, severe form of progressive myoclonus epilepsy affecting previously healthy children or adolescents. In both patients,
