Everolimus
This study will measure if the drug called Everolimus effects mTOR signaling (an electrical activity signal in the brain) in patients with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) and Focal Cortical Dysplasia (FCD) with treatment resistant epilepsy (TRE) who will be undergoing brain surgery. One group of patients will be treated with Everolimus, for 7-28 days prior to epilepsy surgery and another will not. We will determine if there is a difference in mTOR signaling between the patients who were treated with Everolimus and those who were not
