An interactive conversation between Renée Fleming and Kelly Cervantes about the intersection of the arts and neuroscience, followed by a panel discussion of experts including input from people impacted by epilepsy.

Kelly Cervantes lost her daughter, Adelaide, in 2019 when she was only four years old to a neurodegenerative condition. In the months that followed Kelly and her family, including husband Miguel Cervantes of Hamilton Chicago and Broadway fame, navigated a pandemic, cross-country move, and the challenges of grieving in entirely different ways.
