Researchers are committed to finding out what causes MS and how to cure it. People living with the disease may hold the key, and without their participation MS research would come to a standstill. People with MS, and sometimes family members, can make a difference by donating their DNA from blood samples and by volunteering for clinical treatment trials and other studies. They can also make arrangements to donate their brain and spinal cord tissues.
Participate in Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are scientific studies designed to test the safety and efficacy of new agents or regimens for treating disease. Without people with MS who are willing to serve as volunteers in these studies, we could not look forward to new and better therapies. Please also see NARCOMS, registry of people willing to participate in MS research initiated by the Consortium of MS Centers to facilitate multicenter studies.Participate in Genetic Studies
Researchers around the world are collaborating to find the genes that make people susceptible to developing MS and other autoimmune diseases. These studies are fed by the participation of people with MS and their family members who donate blood samples from which DNA is derived.Source - National MS Society..
