Episode 162: MS Conference Updates with EJ Levy and Dr. Kathy Zackowski

Show Notes

We're in the midst of the fall MS conference season, and while all the conferences are virtual, there's still lots of news to share. This week, we're talking with EJ Levy, the Founder and President of MS Hope for a Cure, about Big October 2020.

We're also talking about MS rehabilitation science with Dr. Kathy Zackowski, the Senior Director of Patient Management, Care, & Rehabilitation Research at the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Our wide-ranging conversation includes updates from the 10th International Symposium on Gait & Balance in MS, rehabilitation for people living with progressive MS, and evidence-based best practices when it comes to the physical wellness, nutritional wellness, and emotional wellness of people living with MS.

We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
