Epilepsy researchers awarded $100,000 grant

Kalispell neuroscience researchers in July received a $101,250 grant from the Montana Department of Commerce to aid their search for better treatment for epilepsy and other neurodegenerative conditions. Expesicor was founded in 2016 by neuroscientist Braxton Norwood, who was soon joined by entrepreneur David Booth, whose involvement stemmed from a personal interest in the disorder. The pair, both under 40, are bucking the status quo when it comes to traditional research methods.
