Podcasts discuss new MS treatment strategy

No cure yet exists for MS, but a new therapeutic strategy may help extend brain health, delay progressive disease, and reduce future disability. That’s the assertion of a new report released at the October 2015 ECTRIMS meeting in Barcelona. The report is called "Brain Health: Time Matters in Multiple Sclerosis."

MS Discovery, the podcast of the MS Discovery Forum, features interviews with four report authors, who discuss the evidence and recommendations, ranging from early diagnosis and treatment to fuller economic evaluations:
