What contributes to disability in progressive MS? Very excited to share our paper published in MSJ pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38372019/ Thanks so much Claudia WK Battiston Yiannakas Sara Collorone Alberto Calvi Prados Baris Kanber Francesco Grussu QueenSquareMSCentre et al #MultipleSclerosis💪🏻

Once a year I have an MRI brain scan to track my (inactive, thankfully) MS. The NHS can be shambolic & infuriating but every time I come to QueenSquareMSCentre I feel only immense gratitude that I get my care for free. And my drugs cost a fortune in other countries. Thanks NHS #RRMS
