As the President of the Southern Epilepsy and EEG (SEEEG) Society, I would like to welcome back our current members and extend an invitation to nonmembers to join our society. The SEEEG Annual Meeting is the cornerstone of the society, and we are very excited to bring to you many excellent speakers and exciting topics. This year, our SEEEG Annual Meeting will be held on Jan 31-Feb 2, 2025, at the DeSoto hotel in Savannah, GA. As is our usual tradition, we will begin on Friday evening with a set of engaging and stimulating debates on the topic of epilepsy surgery techniques and epilepsy monitoring with video EEG. On Saturday morning, we will have expert faculty from around the country speak on several exciting and innovative areas of epilepsy and EEG. Topics will span a variety of areas including magnetoencephalogram (MEG) and electrical source imaging (ESI), the repurposing of antiseizure medications for use status epilepticus, biomarkers of efficacy in antiseizure medication therapy and the complications of epilepsy including the neuropsychological effects, sudden cardiac arrest and SUDEP. On Saturday afternoon, following tradition, we welcome fellows in training programs across the country to present interesting cases, followed by stimulating group discussion for all. We will then discuss emerging techniques in the presurgical work up of epilepsy and epilepsy surgery including thalamic stereo-EEG, radiofrequency ablation and focused ultrasound on Sunday morning. I look forward to seeing you all in the beautiful city of Savannah, known for its world-famous cuisine, historical landmarks and Southern charm!
