In epilepsy research, a holy grail has been the identification and understanding of the "epileptogenic zone" - operationally defined as the (minimal) area or region of the brain is indispensible for the generation of epileptic seizures. The identification of the epileptogenic zone is particularly important for surgical treatments of focal epilepsy patients, but I will highlight some recent clinical, experimental and theoretical work showing that it is also fundamentally linked with our understanding of epilepsy and seizures. I will conclude with a proposal for an updated understanding of the epileptogenic zone and ictogenesis.
