Next-generation sequencing has enabled tremendous progress in identifying genetic causes of epilepsy, a neurological disorder with a range of causes and health complications. Ever-larger studies make it clear that variants in a given gene can cause both mild and severe epilepsies. This, in turn, poses challenges for the interpretation of variants identified in affected individuals. Now, in this issue, the Epi25 Collaborative seek to better understand the differential impact of variants in epilepsy-associated genes.
