Ketogenic diets: Where do we go from here?

In 2012, the third biannual international symposium focused on dietary treatments for neurologic disorders will be held. Over the next two years between this current meeting in Edinburgh and the next (Chicago, USA), it is important to keep strong momentum going in order to advance the field. To summarize all the discussions and focus efforts, group meetings were held towards the end of the 4-day symposium to address the critical issues that needed attention in the immediate future. Clinical researchers, basic scientists, dietitians, and parents discussed their goals and the results are presented in this article.
