World MS Day
Did you Know it’s World MS Day?
For World MS Day 2019 the MS International Federation and its network are focusing its campaign on the invisible symptoms of multiple sclerosis and the unseen impact they can have.
MS Research would like to support World MS Day by encouraging you to share your stories with us through Twitter or Facebook using the hashtag #myinvisiblems
MS Research and the Women who Support Us
On International Women’s day we would like to introduce you to three women without whom MS Research simply wouldn’t be able to achieve what we do. Our thanks and respect go out to Rosie, Laurence and Ollie for their hard work and commitment.
Dr Rosie Jones – Chairman
Rosie gained a PhD at Birmingham University Medical School as a Neuromuscular Physiologist and has had extensive active engagement in laboratory and clinical MS research and teaching. She has held posts at the University of Birmingham, University College London and at Bristol University and in the NHS in Bristol.
It's Volunteering Week
How Can You Help Us?
MS Research always needs volunteers. Are you able to help? We are always keen to hear from people who would like to help us develop our approach and play an active role in the organisation.
There are many ways you can be involved:
Notes for people who have been diagnosed for some time
No doubt when you were told your diagnosis of MS you felt confused and perhaps shocked. Hopefully you have begun to understand your MS and how the symptoms of MS affect you personally. You may also have observed is that the course of MS and the changes that MS brings about vary greatly from one person to another and nobody can tell you exactly what lies ahead for you.
