Lecture Series

Each year, our Society hosts Speaking of Epilepsy, a series of lectures on a wide variety of epilepsy related topics. In recent years topics have been as diverse as anti-epileptic medications, sibling issues, active living, depression, surgery, women's issues, and employment.

This year's series of five lectures are being hosted at the Chan Auditorium of the Children's and Women's Health Centre of BC at the southeast corner of Oak Street and 28th Avenue in Vancouver. The first lecture was on Genetics and Epilepsy, and the second was an "Ask the Expert Panel" with a neurologist, a nurse clinician, and a social worker. They were both highly informative and well-attended, and we are looking forward to the remaining lectures, which will be hosted on January 15, April 17, and May 26.

Admission is free to current members of our Society and only $10 for each lecture if you are not a member. You can take out a membership at the start of any lecture and save the lecture fee.
