An Update From Dr. Bruce Bebo

MS research has reached an important moment. My guest, Dr. Bruce Bebo, calls it “an inflection point.” Dr. Bebo is the Executive Vice-President of Research for the National MS Society, and we're talking with Bruce about the MS research projects that have him most excited, why now is the time to write the final chapter in solving the riddle of MS, and how we might even go about preventing people from developing MS.

We'll also give you all the details about the MS Society's newly published recommendations for exercise and physical activity for everyone living with MS. And we'll share the new question that you should be asking your neurologist at your next appointment.

We'll tell you about this year's recipient of the Dystel Prize for MS research. And you'll hear about a study that looked at the experiences of African-American women with MS.

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