Past Podcast Episodes

Welcome to Part 1 of a special two-part RealTalk MS series highlighting conversations with past recipients of the Barancik Prize for Innovation in MS Research.

The Barancik Prize is awarded at the annual meeting of the Americas Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis, a meeting better known as the ACTRIMS Forum. Several past Barancik Prize winners gathered at the 2023 ACTRIMS Forum to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Barancik Prize, and I took that opportunity to chat with this remarkable group of MS research all-stars.

Dr. Daniel Reich and Dr. Philip De Jager

Part 1 of Barancik Prize Conversations features the 2014 and 2016 Barancik Prize winners.

Dr. Philip De Jager, of Columbia University, was awarded the Barancik Prize in 2014 for applying powerful analytic approaches to better understanding how genes and the environment interact, with the goal of developing personalized treatments for MS and, ultimately, disease prevention.

Dr. Daniel Reich, of the NIH Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, received the Barancik Prize in 2016 for innovating approaches to imaging MS disease activity, creating new pathways to better treatments.

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

You've told me that the subject of diet and MS is one of your top three interests. And a quick scan of social media platforms reveals that a lot of people living with MS agree!

Dr. Ilana Katz Sand

This week, Dr. Ilana Katz Sand, the Associate Director of the Corinne Goldsmith Dickinson Center for Multiple Sclerosis at Mount Sinai, joins me with an update on what the latest research is revealing about the impact of diet on MS, and to answer that eternal question — Is there an MS diet?

We're also talking about the launch of OCTOPUS, a groundbreaking clinical trial for progressive MS.

We'll talk with Dr. Erin Longbrake, the principal investigator in CELLO, a national clinical trial that's focused on potentially neutralizing MS before symptoms even develop.

And if you're living with MS and you're looking for one more reason to stop smoking, we're sharing some recently published sobering evidence.

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