Working though the 2 year data - curious to see where the correlations between SC grey and step count go. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36573559/

Designed in collaboration w/#patients & #clinicians, #MS-FIT has emerged as well-received closed-loop tool for tracking #falls & reducing falls risk in individuals w/MS. Patients liked its brevity, simplicity & overall utility...Clinicians welcomed the closed-loop system...

This afternoon we had a conversation with the fantastic Valerie Block, PT DPTSc, of UC San Francisco, who discussed findings from a pilot study of wearables for bladder monitoring in #MultipleSclerosis presented at #CMSC2024. Stay tuned! CMSC IJMSC

I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n

There are no fluctuations in daily step count following anti-CD20 infusion in people with #MultipleSclerosis, thus suggesting stability between infusions. Prospective study using Fitbit from Valerie Block, PT DPTSc Riley Bove UC San Francisco ▶️ journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20…

This achievement "demonstrates the immense time, effort and expense it takes to understand complicated human diseases and develop effective treatments — but also how the investment can have profound effects on human lives." UC San Francisco Dr. Stephen Hauser
