Funded Activity Summary

Much is known regarding the factors that increase the risk of developing multiple sclerosis. However there is little data regarding the importance of these and other factors on the rate of progression of MS. Once the diagnosis of MS is made one of the critical issues for patients and treating physicians is; what will happen now? There are currently no established modifiable risk factors for MS progression; therefore, in this project we aim to delineate potentially modifiable risk factors for MS progression.
