Rachel and Stu Maybury's 15-year-old son Tommy has epilepsy, ADHD and autism. Ms Maybury also has epilepsy.
Professor Mark Cook and his team, have devised a small ‘Minder’ implant at the ACMD that could be life-changing for people with Epilepsy.

The implant sends live brain activity data to the Minder app.
