In laboratory research, rodent models of

seizures (a type of
generalized epilepsy, in which electrical
activity of the entire brain is affected), and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (a type of partial epilepsy, which only affects one hemisphere of the brain).
This is a type of

activity occurs on both sides of the brain, so both sides of the body are affected.
If an individual neuron has is a
seizure, the
seizure activity in this one neuron can easily and instantaneously spread to other neurons, leading eventually to a
generalized seizure.
