Introduction – Who is Dr. Barry Singer?

I am a director of an MS center here in St. Louis, in the heartland of the United States, right in the center. And I run a comprehensive MS center. We take care of over 4,000 patients at our center and do it with a whole team of wonderful nurses and medical assistants. And in addition, we do a lot of clinical research. So we've been involved in numerous clinical trials, bringing some of the medications that we have available to the market and research on remyelination. So very exciting research as well. And, you know, in my spare time, I have a website, MS Living Well, that was started in 2008, which provides comprehensive education for people living with MS around the globe. And then also MS Living Well podcast for the past five years. So keeps me busy.

How and where can interested people follow your research activities?

If you are interested, check out the MS Living Well podcast. So it's on various podcast apps, including Apple Podcasts. The website is MSLivingWell.org. And so a lot of great information there, there's a blog, there is information on understanding your disease, I got animated videos, understanding your MRI, and some award-winning content there. And then I'm on Twitter, or X, I guess it's called now. And so, you know, I post there as well, particularly during the meetings, the academic meetings, like Ekram's and Actrooms and try to post the latest news. So if something new is going on in the world of MS, I put it out there and I announced my podcast on there as well.
