Episode 343: Progressive MS Day with Kevin Reid

March 28th is Progressive MS Day, a day that offers an opportunity for people affected by MS, patient advocates, healthcare providers, governments, and industry to share stories online and show their support for people living with progressive forms of MS.

My wife, Jeanne, lived with progressive MS for 23 years, so this day holds a special significance for me. Joining me to talk about what Progressive MS Day is all about is my friend, Kevin Reid. Kevin was diagnosed with MS in 2002 and, for the past 10 years, he's been on a mission to crush MS.

As MS Awareness Month draws to a close, we're sharing a series of short videos featuring conversations I had with MS experts at the ECTRIMS congress. What makes this video series unique is that iConquer MS invited people living with MS to watch these videos. Then, I interviewed them to get their perspective on the topics the experts were discussing. It's the first time you'll not only hear from the experts, but you'll also get the thoughts and reactions of people who are living with MS.

We'll tell you about the neurostimulator that was just designated as a Breakthrough Device for promoting myelin repair.

We'll share the details of a newly announced Phase 2 clinical trial for a T-cell therapy for MS.

You'll hear about the study that identified a biomarker that reliably predicted the likelihood of future disease activity in people with MS.

And we'll tell you where you can catch the video replay of the 2024 ACTRIMS Forum Patient-Centered Webinars.

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