Staff Profile

Rhys joined Newcastle University in 2017. He is an Honorary Consultant in Epilepsy at the Royal Victoria Infirmary, where he leads on epilepsy and learning disability, genetic testing in the epilepsies. He is a Consultant in the NHS Highly Specialised Service for rare mitochondrial disorders, taking an interest in epilepsy and stroke-like episodes.

Rhys is Co-Director of the Newcastle ERUK Doctoral Hub with Prof Andy Trevelyan an ambitious project that will bring through the brightest young talent locally in a Masters and PhD programme. Amongst our projects is a clinical study of the microbiome in epilepsy, led by Anna Nowicka and co-supervised by Chris Stewart.

His research interests include the causes and consequences of epilepsy - primarily the genetic causes of the epilepsies. With Dr David Lewis-Smith (Wellcome 4Ward North Clinical PhD Fellow) he studies genotypic and phenotypic patterns in common and rare epilepsies including using the Epi25 and UKBiobank. Rhys works closely with SUDEP Action in studying the Epilepsy Death Register, the paediatric paper was published in 2021. Rhys was the 2017 Royal College of Physicians Linacre lecturer. He spoke about the risks and benefits of sodium valproate for women of child-bearing age.

Rhys helped to led a COVID19 study reporting the pattern of neurological and neuropsychiatric features, together with colleagues from the Universities of Southampton, Liverpool and UCL. CoroNerve is a consortium bringing together the ABN, BPNA, BNPA, BASP, NACCS and RCPsych to harmonise case reporting in the UK. Our first 153 notifications was published in Lancet Psychiatry, and the main data in Brain Communications. The paediatric series was in Lancet Child & Adolescent Health. He was the local lead on COVID-CNS a £2.3m UKRI study of the biomarkers of neuropsychiatric features of COVID. 

Rhys is proud to be a Trustee for the Epilepsy Research Institute and was the clinical lead for the Priority Setting Partnership (PSP) led by Epilepsy Research UK, launched in 2021. He is vice-chair of the scientific advisory board for Ring20 research and support. With Dr Arun Soma we are preparing a large community led series of people with ring chromosome 20 disorders.

He is an Associate Editor of Practical Neurology, Web Editor of Seizure and a medical advisor for Epilepsy Action. Since October 2024 he is the President of the British Branch of the International League Against Epilepsy.

Working with Dr Owen Pickrell, Swansea he supports the Epilepsy Research funded Fellow, Dr Kathryn Bush in her study of the epidemiology and mortality of epilepsy and the search for preventable social determinants of health.

Rhys is interested in the interplay between common and rare genetic variants and how these contribute to produce common and rare epilepsies. Dr Hester Garrett, Dr Alex Grundmann and Dr Arun Soma and Dr Alice Willison are working on epilepsy genetics studies.

Alongside colleagues at Cardiff University he is looking at the effects of copy number variation in the general population (Kendall et al. Biol Psychiatry 2017), in families with genetic generalised epilepsy, and in people with drug-resistant juvenile myoclonic epilepsy. In 2013-2014 he had a year on an epilepsy fellowship under Professors Sam Berkovic and Ingrid Scheffer at the University of Melbourne. Here he worked on the Epi4K families project (Brain 2017).

He is a member of -

Epi25

An international consortium utilising deep sequencing techniques at scale to identify rare variants in common epilepsies

The Epi4K Consortium for Familial Epilepsies

Harnessing the power of large families to understand heritability, phenotypic expression and to drive gene discovery (Epi4K, Brain 2017; Epi4k/EPGP Lancet Neurology 2017)

The International League Against Epilepsy Consortium on Complex Epilepsies

Genome wide association studies to understand common epilepsies

BIOJUME

Using indices of ictogenicty to stratify a genome wide association study of people with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy
