~If you missed this the other night like I did, watch it now! It answers so many questions about clinical trials! And how important they are! This webinar gives you sites to look into besides our own mymsaa.org/ms-information/c...

It will also give you questions to ask when thinking about about a trial. Enjoy! I did! ~

BTW it answered my placebo question! ~

Featuring Mitzi Joi Williams, MD

While multiple sclerosis affects all races and ethnicities, minority populations may bear an unequal burden from the disease, including a higher risk of aggressive disease and disability. However, minority populations are severely underrepresented in scientific research.

Presented by MSAA and Accelerated Cure Project (ACP), this archived webinar features expert neurologist Mitzi Joi Williams, MD addressing the role research plays in improving the health of people affected by MS, and the reasons why participation from minority populations is needed to develop treatments for all affected by the disease.

Good Post, Jesmcd2 Thank you for sharing. I am currently in a trial, and have been since my diagnosis. They collect my blood, at every visit, that is used and shared to hopefully find a cure. :-D
