It's my first day at the American Academy of Neurology Annual Meeting, and we're talking about a great presentation on Progress in Progressive MS and some eye-opening news about the amount of money we're spending in the U.S. on prescription drugs to treat neurological conditions.
Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
We're also talking about the European Medicine Agency's safety review of Lemtrada. We'll tell you about the 20 million American caregivers who are performing medical or nursing tasks for which they've received no training. We'll give you a real-world example of why people living with MS (or anyone else) living in a care facility need an advocate. And you'll hear about a web portal that uses artificial intelligence to analyze language skills in order to predict cognitive decline.
We have a lot to talk about. Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
