Research is the driver of progress in MS care and treatment. In this issue, we’ll take you inside some of the most promising innovations transforming the MS landscape. We begin with how CAR T-cell therapy is unlocking the potential of the immune system to combat MS, followed by learning about BTK inhibitors, which are offering fresh hope for those with progressive forms of the disease. Plus, we’ll break down the latest potential updates to MS diagnostic criteria—that will hopefully soon be helping doctors detect and treat MS earlier than ever.
We’ll also share highlights from a recent chat with Dr. Enrique Alvarez, the Center’s new Medical Director. Dr. Alvarez has been a part of our organization for more than a decade, and he brings a wealth of clinical knowledge and research expertise to his role. In this interview, he shares his personal journey, his vision for advancing MS care, and his thoughts on the exciting developments shaping the future of treatment.
We’ll also share some key insights from the most recent ECTRIMS conference—the world’s largest annual gathering of MS researchers. Our roundup highlights some of the groundbreaking work and big ideas presented by the leading minds in the field.
Whether you’re living with MS, supporting someone who is, or simply want to stay in the know, this issue is designed to inform, inspire, and offer a glimpse into the future of MS care, the key questions being explored, and the hope it brings.
