after induction of the
seizure.
This result, however, might not necessarily mean that IAA plays no significant role in this defensive behavior because the Acks induction was not clearly observed in the ALs of the Japanese honeybee workers even
after the
seizure - induction, suggesting that Acks might not be applicable for detection of neural
activity in the ALs (data not shown).

Plus, the grant will help them work with researchers led by Doug Nordli, M.D., at the Lurie Children's Hospital at Northwestern University, which has a large clinical program for Dravet syndrome and will look at heart rhythm
activity during and
after seizures in its patients as part of the study.
So instead of focusing on the origin of the
seizure, which we might not identify in time, we propose going
after a strategic point in the network — a choke point that can cut off the abnormal

If your dog has multiple
seizures, a
seizure that lasts longer than five minutes, or if he does not return quickly to his normal

seizure, you should treat the situation as an emergency, and seek veterinary care right away.
