Episode 250: At the Consortium of MS Centers Annual Meeting with Dr. Saud Sadiq, Dr. Kathy Zackowski and Marijean Buhse, PhD, RN, NP-C, MSCN

One afternoon during the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers Annual Meeting, I set up my equipment at the National MS Society's booth in the conference exhibit hall and recorded some conversations with a few old friends and a few new friends of the podcast. In this week's episode, we'll hear a couple of those conversations.

Before I left for the conference, I had a chance to catch up with Dr. Saud Sadiq. So, we'll begin this episode with an update on his mesenchymal stem cell clinical trial and the unprecedented outcome he's seeing.

We'll talk with Dr. Kathy Zackowski and get her impressions of some of the conference presentations that got her attention.

And we'll hear from Marijean Buhse as she recaps what I found to be an important presentation on shared decision-making.

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