Episode 480: MSToronto 2026 with Dr. Jeffrey Cohen and Dr. Robert Fox

Our coverage of MSToronto 2026 continues this week with two important conversations. First, we'll hear from Dr. Jeffrey Cohen about the latest clinical findings on CAR-T cell therapy as a potential treatment for MS. Then, Dr. Robert Fox will update us on the global research portfolio being driven by the International Progressive MS Alliance.

And we have to talk about Christina Applegate. By now, the news of her misdiagnosis isn't really news. But we have some suggestions for how you might want to process that news.

We have a lot to talk about. Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
