Richard Rudick

If you've listened to this podcast before, you already know that we avoid hype, and we stick to talking about evidence-based science. So, let me say right up front -- today, the cause of multiple sclerosis is unknown. However, a research team has identified a bacterial toxin that may prove to be the cause of MS onset as well as MS relapses.  Joining me for an exclusive conversation about this discovery is Dr. Timothy Vartanian, who leads the team that made the discovery, and Dr. Richard Rudick, whose career has focused on experimental therapeutics for MS, playing a key role in the development of both Avonex and Tysabri. We're also talking about a stem cell therapy called MSC-NP that, in a Phase 1 clinical trial, delivered positive outcomes among people living with progressive MS. We'll tell you about a study that demonstrated why EDSS alone does not accurately define an individual's MS journey. We're sharing news from the International Progressive MS Alliance about a new research pipeline that will focus on improving well-being for people living with progressive MS. And we'll tell you where you can catch a replay of the International Progressive MS Alliance's latest webcast, Developing Treatments to End MS Progression. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??! This Week: Is this the cause of MS?  :22 STUDY: MSC:NP, a stem cell therapy for MS, delivers a positive outcome among people living with progressive MS  1:33 STUDY: Does EDSS tell the whole story of your MS status?   5:03 The International Progressive MS Alliance funds a research pipeline focused on improving well-being among people living with progressive MS  8:42 Webcast Replay: Developing Treatments to End MS Progression   10:24 Dr. Richard Rudick and Dr. Timothy Vartanian discuss a new discovery that may lead scientists to the cause of MS   11:36 Share this episode  29:25 Have you downloaded the free RealTalk MS app?  29:46 SHARE THIS EPISODE OF REALTALK MS Just copy this link &amp; paste it into your text or email: https://realtalkms.com/292 ADD YOUR VOICE TO THE CONVERSATION I've always thought about the RealTalk MS podcast as a conversation.
