So today begins a new era in my group’s research as we venture into the role of EBV and HERVs in the pathogenesis of MS. Collaborating with the wonderful @RTarlinton, @BrunoGran2, @RaduTanasescu1. Keep your eye’s peeled, we’ll be updating regularly.

Is there a potential for EBV vaccination to prevent MS? YES. This paper outlines the possible EBV vaccine approaches in MS and the sample size estimates. @bg42b @HarvardChanSPH @NIH @uabSOPH @CShannonLowe @GavinGiovannoni @RaduTanasescu1 @NCMSNI frontiersin.org/article/10.3…

We found the same in a population of over 800 patients across the UK and USA : Delaying #ocrevus treatment appears safe (no relapses, no MRI activity). Poster P826 of #ECTRIMS2021 @Helenlouiseford @ETallantyre

Central vein sign #CVS on MRI likely will decrease misdiagnosis of MS. Useful to predict radiological isolated syndrome conversion to MS. Studies ongoing to see if #CVS should be added to MS diagnostic criteria. @nikosevangelou3 #ECTRIMS2021

Iron rims seem to be prognostically important. Poster P474, reports 10 year clinical study of iron rim in WM lesions in 90 patients and found both EDSS and ARMSS were 1 step higher if patients had IRL at baseline. #ECTRIMS2021 @HibbertAimee @Cneurospirt @majudah

Domestic abuse is a much under recognised and under reported major problem in MS clinics. I have just been made aware of one more patient from our MS clinic that needs support. We are on it. @NUHNeuro
Thank you for your support for this crucial research collaboration investigating domestic abuse in #MS. @LTHTNEURO working with @UniversityLeeds and @UniofNottingham @nikosevangelou3
