Myelin, Movement, and the Mind: Hot Topics in MS Research
Research is the driving factor in understanding the cause, management, and, hopefully one day a cure for multiple sclerosis. What we know about MS has come a long way over the years, particularly its profound effects on the critical nerve protectors known as myelin. Join a neurologist and two psychologists in this month’s webinar as they explore research updates on myelin repair and new developments in stem cell research. Through an interactive discussion, they will also provide a real-life look into exercise rehabilitation and its impacts on cognition, as well as the promising treatment options offered through mindfulness and meditation that can help people with MS manage stress, improve physical and mental health, and enhance their overall quality of life.
