RealTalkMS
Join host Jon Strum each week as he breaks down the latest multiple sclerosis news. We’re talking about the amazing MS research that’s currently being done in laboratories around the world — and we’re talking to some of the brilliant neuroscientists who are conducting that research!
We’re monitoring the debate among our lawmakers surrounding prescription drug price transparency, healthcare legislation, funding for new and experimental MS research — anything that might impact your MS treatments.
And we’re talking with MS activists, MS caregivers, and other heroes who strive to raise the bar for those who battle MS every day.
If you’re affected by multiple sclerosis — as a patient, caregiver, family member, or friend — join us for RealTalk MS.
