Episode 278: Re-Visiting My Conversation with Tyler Campbell

When people ask me how I go about deciding who to interview for this podcast, my answer has always been the same. I look for difference-makers. People whose efforts are making a real difference in the MS community. They might be a researcher, clinician, rehabilitation specialist, MS Navigator, fundraiser…it's a long list. A difference-maker might also be someone who motivates and inspires all of us by the way they choose to embrace life.

Tyler Campbell

My favorite conversation this year was with just that kind of person. And, judging from the many thousands of you who listened to that conversation and the feedback so many of you shared with me, it was one of your favorite conversations, too.

In 2007, Tyler Campbell was a running back at San Diego State, looking forward to a real shot at a career in the NFL. Instead, Tyler's life was turned upside down by an MS diagnosis.

For some people, that would have been the end of the story. For Tyler, it was only the beginning.

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

Episode 277: Re-Visiting Pathways to Cures with Dr. Carol Whitacre and Professor Alan Thompson

For me, the holiday season is a time for joy, celebration, and reflection. And when I reflect upon the advances in MS research that we've seen in the past year, it's hard not to feel encouraged.

2022 will be remembered as the year when the National MS Society published the Pathways to Cures research roadmap, a bold initiative focused on stopping MS progression, restoring lost function, and ending MS forever.

Pathways to Cures Research Roadmap

I talked about this pivotal moment in the history of MS research with Dr. Carol Whitacre and Professor Alan Thompson, and they each shared their insights into what the Pathways to Cures research roadmap was all about and what this historic initiative means for people affected by MS.

My conversations with Dr. Whitacre and Professor Thompson were two of the most important conversations that I had in 2022 and, as the year draws to a close, I think they're worth revisiting.
