Dr. Wyllie has invited three new editors: Gregory Cascino, MD, at Mayo Clinic, adult epileptologist with special expertise in neuroimaging; Barry Gidal, PharmD, RPh, at University of Wisconsin, a pharmacologist with phenomenal expertise in antiepileptic medications; and Howard Goodkin, MD, PhD, a pediatric neurologist at the University of Virginia.
