Scientists from the University of Glasgow are trialling a treatment which could offer “revolutionary” treatment for those who suffer from drug-resistant epilepsy.
Around 30% of people who have the condition are unable to control the seizures using medication.
However, researchers have now discovered a flexible probe which can be inserted into the brain to stop the fits from happening.
There are already treatments using brain probes on the market, however, they are made using rigid materials like silicon which is uncomfortable and painful for patients.
