Research is the engine that drives us toward better understanding MS, better treating MS, and one day, curing MS. My guest on the podcast is Dr. Larry Sherman, who plays a vital role on the front lines of MS research. We're talking with Dr. Sherman about some of his most significant research and his unique research lab.

We're also talking about two important victories for MS Activists. We'll tell you about the EMA approval of Gilenya for treating pediatric MS, the FDA approval of a generic for Aubagio, new technology that will enable people with MS to pilot their wheelchairs by flexing a couple of facial muscles, and the rehab technique that can benefit Olympic athletes and people living with MS.

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