Objective
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders. The identification of chromosomal loci genetically linked to the epilepsy syndromes should lead to the identification of epilepsy-related genes, which in turn should allow a better understanding of both pathogenetic mechanisms of epilepsy and brain functioning. Among several types of epilepsies, human idiopathic generalized epilepsy seems to have an almost complete genetic etiology. The collection of large-pedigree families, the use of highly polymorphic microsatellites markers for genotyping analysis, and the subsequent statistical analyses of data, should allow the identification of human genomic regions in which candidate genes will be searched.

Topic(s)
Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
