Just a couple of weeks ago, 1,800 scientists, clinicians, postdoctoral fellows, and medical residents gathered in West Palm Beach, Florida, for the Americas Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis annual meeting, better known as the ACTRIMS Forum. Dr. Peter Calabresi is the Director of the Division of Neuroimmunology and the Director of the Multiple Sclerosis Center at Johns Hopkins Medicine, focusing on the diagnosis and management of MS. He is the principal investigator on several clinical trials and oversees research projects focused on creating new anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective therapies for MS. At the ACTRIMS Forum, we talked with Dr. Calabresi about updates to the criteria used to diagnose MS, the importance and benefit of identifying biomarkers for MS, and what he sees in MS research today that has him excited.
