Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Anibal Chertcoff, MD According to a recent study, psychiatric conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia may be early indicators of multiple sclerosis (MS) years before symptoms appear, which could enable the early diagnosis and treatment of patients with MS. Joining Dr. Charles Turck to share key details and findings from this study is Dr. Anibal Chertcoff. Not only is Dr. Chertcoff the lead author of the study, but he’s also a postdoctoral fellow at the University of British Columbia where his research centers on characterizing the multiple sclerosis prodrome.
