WAYS TO GET INVOLVED
The U.S. Network of Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis Centers (NPMSC) conducts research across five priority areas that address critical challenges in pediatric MS: 1) Susceptibility 2) Etiology & Pathogenesis 3) Therapeutics 4) Remyelination & Neuroprotection and 5) Wellness & Restoration. These focus areas align with the National MS Society’s Pathways to Cures roadmap and support our mission to stop progression, restore function, and ultimately prevent MS.
As we pursue these goals, collaboration remains essential to the process. Below are several ways researchers can work with the network to support and expand this work.
