The effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on microRNA expressions in epilepsy - Mona Heiland

from Epilepsy Sparks Insights · host Torie Robinson

Meet Mona Heiland, a final year Ph.D. student from RCSI, Ireland who under the supervision of Prof David Henshall is studying the effects ofcannabidiol (CBD) on microRNA expressions in epilepsy. CBD has shown its potential as an Anti-Seizure Medication; especially for drug-refractory genetic types of epilepsy, however, the underlying molecular mechanisms of CBD’s anti-seizure activities are still unknown. Mona investigates whether the anti-seizure effects of CBD are dependent on the regulation of microRNAs.  **CONNECT WITH MONA** • Twitter: https://twitter.com/MonaHeiland  **READ ABOUT MONA’S WORK** • Website: https://www.futureneurocentre.ie/people/mona-heiland  • ResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Mona-Heiland  • RCSI: https://repository.rcsi.com/authors/Mona_Heiland/7896944  **CHECK OUT THE YOUTUBE VIDEO WITH MONA** • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TorieRobinson/videos  **CONNECT WITH TORIE** • Website:https://www.torierobinson.com • Twitter:https://twitter.com/torierobinson10 • LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/torierobinson • Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TorieRobinsonSpeaker  **CHECK OUT TORIE’S YOUTUBE & BLOG** • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TorieRobinson • Blog: https://www.torierobinson.com/blog **HIRE TORIE AS A SPEAKER ON EPILEPSY, MENTAL HEALTH, DISABILITY, & DIVERSITY** https://www.torierobinson.com/contact
