Full description I recently developed a world-first mobile and wearable app to forecast the risk of epileptic seizures. Tracking seizure risk enables people with epilepsy to better manage their seizures, improving quality of life and safety. Moving forward, this project will explore how seizure risk relates to stress and multiday rhythms in the autonomic nervous system and will then link risk forecasts to a novel targeted, mobile intervention to reduce the chance of having a seizure.
