Bonus Episode: ACTRIMS 2020


Welcome to this Bonus Episode of RealTalk MS, coming to you from the 2020 ACTRIMS Forum. ACTRIMS is an acronym for the Americas Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis. And this year, 1200 MS research scientists and clinicians have come together to share the latest MS research news and insights.

Professor Francisco Quintana

We'll take you inside the proceedings at ACTRIMS and share the highlights of some of the most compelling presentations.

My first guest is the recipient of this year's Barancik Prize, Professor Francisco Quintana, and we're talking about Professor Quintana's innovative breakthrough research.

And my second guest, Clinical Specialist Micki Maes, will break down the details of a cutting edge application that uses artificial intelligence to read and analyze MRI scans.

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

Episode 130: MS Advocacy with MS Activist Diane Kramer


We're just a week away from the National MS Society's Public Policy Conference in Washington, D.C. And my guest is Diane Kramer, an MS Activist from State College, Pennsylvania, who will be attending the Public Policy Conference for the first time.

Diane Kramer

Diane has experienced some of the same obstacles and frustrations that so many people living with MS experience — insurance companies preventing her from getting the disease-modifying therapy that her neurologist prescribed, having the high cost of her MS medication force her to make nearly impossible financial choices, even skipping treatment. But whether she's knocking on the doors of neurologists' offices in her area so that she can connect them with resources from the MS Society, or starting an MS support group in her community when she found there wasn't one, Diane is a force to be reckoned with.

Jon also has some difficult news to share. And we'll tell you how you can support Jon in this year's Walk MS.

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