It is with great interest that we read the publication by Lin and collaborators on trio exome sequencing in genetic generalized epilepsy, providing an assessment of monogenic etiologies to the disease burden in one of the most common epilepsies [1]. A strong genetic contribution to genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE) has been acknowledged since the early twin studies in the 1940′s, but gene discovery in GGE has been slow, compared to the dramatic success in the developmental and epileptic encephalopathies.
