ORLANDO — Studies to be presented at a joint meeting of the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers (CMSC) and the Americas Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ACTRIMS) here later this week will demonstrate yet again why MS is one of the most dynamic fields of medicine.
“The availability of medications with different mechanisms of action and risk-benefit profiles, understanding basic disease pathology, dealing with personal challenges due to chronic disease, and the consequences of the rising healthcare costs are rapidly evolving issues in MS,” according to CMSC President Susan Bennett, PT, DPT, EdD, and ACTRIMS President Paul O’Connor, MD, MSc.
With 35 oral research presentations and nearly 150 posters scheduled at the meeting — in addition to dozens of workshops, courses, and symposia — the meeting “will provide attendees with information about the immunology, genetics, biomarkers, epidemiology, and pathophysiology of the disease,” added June Halper, MSCN, APN-C, CMSC’s executive director.
