Episode 93: Stem Cells Are In the News & A Research Update from Dr. Karen Lee, V.P. of Research at the MS Society of Canada

Stem Cells are in the news, and we're talking about the U.S. District Court decision that will impact hundreds of stem cell clinics in the United States and the FDA's ability to regulate them. We'll also share two breakthroughs in stem cell research that will likely impact the future of stem cell therapy.

My guest on the podcast is Dr. Karen Lee, the Vice-President of Research at the MS Society of Canada. Canada has one of the highest rates of MS in the world, and the MS Society of Canada has responded by launching research initiatives on several fronts.

Dr. Lee is going to give us an update on some of the research that the MS Society of Canada is involved in, including a major multi-year study that's focused on answering the questions, how and why does MS progress?

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