What We Offer


Personalized, Multidisciplinary Care

Our neurologists develop individualized treatment plans using advanced diagnostic tools and the most current therapies. Care may include disease-modifying treatments, symptom management, and coordinated rehabilitation services tailored to each patient’s needs.

Nurses provide education and ongoing support related to medications, symptom management, and daily living with MS. Clinical social workers offer individualized guidance and help patients and families navigate emotional, cognitive, and practical challenges associated with the disease.

Infusion Therapy

Research and Clinical Trials

Research is a core mission of the MS Center. Our clinical, translational, and basic science programs focus on limiting disability, restoring function, and advancing new treatments for multiple sclerosis. Patients may have opportunities to participate in clinical trials evaluating novel therapies designed to slow disease progression and promote repair.

Our research spans neuroscience, immunology, genetics, and advanced imaging, including efforts to better visualize axons and myelin and to develop regenerative strategies for MS.

Association between EBV infection and Multiple Sclerosis

Increased focus has been put on the connection between Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and MS in the past, and an interesting study has been published in January 2022 in the journal Science.EBV is the primary cause of mononucleosis, and can be found in 95% of all adults, while approximately 99.5% of MS patients carry the virus.Scientists at Harvard used blood samples that were collected over 2 decades from more than 10 million young adults working in the U.S. military.In this monitored group, the risk...

Association of Myelin Content in Lesions and Cognition in MS

Cognitive impairment is highly prevalent in patients with multiple sclerosis and mechanisms of cognitive decline remain poorly understood.Our group conducted a study of patients with MS to study myelin content in brain lesions and cognition in MS.One hundred and sixty-four MS patients underwent MRIs using a specialized sequence that measures myelin content in lesions. These patients also had cognitive assessment using a test called SDMT, which is a good test of information processing speed...
