Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterised by spontaneous and recurrent seizures. Although epilepsy has a wide range of aetiologies, the cause of seizures often remains unidentified [1]. Epilepsy is a leading cause of disability in young people, and the global prevalence among young people aged ≤19 years is estimated to be almost 1% (i.e., approximately 23 million young people worldwide) [2]. In Australia, about 1 in 200 children are living with epilepsy, with an estimated total direct and indirect annual cost of AUD$12.3 billion [3].
