Episode 116: Dual-Tasking & MS with Dr. Soha Saleh

Last week, the National MS Society and RealTalk MS announced a new partnership. And we're definitely talking about it! My guest is Dr. Soha Saleh, a research scientist at Kessler Foundation's Center for Mobility and Rehabilitation Engineering Research, and we're talking about her innovative research in understanding how MS impacts dual-tasking -- something that all of us do, all day long. We'll tell you about the newly announced Weill Neurohub, and why that's such promising news for people affected by MS. We're also talking about the price of Vumerity, the new oral disease-modifying therapy, and suggesting some of the things to keep in mind as we consider steps to ensure that everyone living with MS has access to affordable prescription medications. And we'll tell you about the alternative to EDSS that's been proposed by the Multiple Sclerosis Outcome Assessments Consortium. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??! ___________ A BIG Announcement About RealTalk MS! 1:19
