Who we are

TelEp is one of the first networks to use telemedicine to diagnose and treat epilepsy.
The initial pilot project was launched in 2013, funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of Environment and Health. The first phase involved the Epilepsy Center Erlangen as the coordinating center and two other neurological clinics in Lower and Upper Franconia. These satellite clinics were the Department of Neurology at Bezirkskrankenhaus Bayreuth and the Leopoldina Hospital Schweinfurt. Thanks to the success of the pilot project, the network was able to gain many other partners over the years, including neurological physicians with their own practices.
We have since succeeded in incorporating TelEp into standard health care.

Our technology

The Department of Neurology at Universitätsklinikum Erlangen has been involved for many years in developing and using telemedicine in neurology. Modern telesupport systems have been developed and tested for security and reliability during remote examinations together with companies from the Nuremberg Metropolitan Region and experts from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.
