Episode 355: The NARCOMS Patient Registry with Dr. Robert Fox

Research is the engine that drives the future. And participating in MS research is not only vital to improving scientists' understanding of multiple sclerosis, it's also empowering. And the really good news is that you can participate in MS research from the comfort of your own home.

My guest this week is the Managing Director of the North American Research Committee on Multiple Sclerosis, Dr. Robert Fox. And we're taking a deep dive into the NARCOMS patient registry.

We'll also tell you about the latest version of AlphaFold, a highly advanced artificial intelligence model designed to help scientists design new drugs and target disease more effectively.

Evidence shows that the Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) triggers MS. We're reviewing the results of a study that may help scientists better understand the relationship between EBV and MS.

The International Progressive MS Alliance upcoming webcast, Mobility Challenges in Progressive MS, takes place this Thursday, June 20th. Find out where you can register and why you won't want to miss this!

And we're just 6 weeks away from Crush MS, a fundraising event in Napa Valley, California that raises money to support MS research. I'll be there, and I hope you can join me! We're sharing all the details.

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