About this Event
Let's Talk about MS Research
Join us to hear the latest MS research news
We'll be joined by Dr Emma Gray, Director of Research at the MS Society, who will share how the MS Society is investing in research to manage the impact of MS, stop it progressing, and one day, prevent future generations from developing it altogether. From lab discoveries to clinical trials and emerging treatments, Emma will highlight how research in Northern Ireland is driving progress toward a world free from MS - and how you could get involved. Emma will be joined by two co-investigators from the Northern Ireland MS Research Hub, Dr Michelle Naughton and Dr Lajos Csincsik. They will talk about the work of the Hub in its first year.
