MS Connect | Virtual

Join us for MS Awareness Month at The Neuro!
This year, we are excited to host two special events for people living with multiple sclerosis (MS) who receive care at The Neuro. These events are an opportunity to:
- Discover the latest breakthroughs in MS research, including innovations happening right here at The Neuro.
- Learn how you are—or can be—part of our open science research program.
- Connect, network, and engage with our community.
We’re offering two options:
- Virtual Event: April 14, 2025
- In-Person Event + Guided Tour: May 1, 2025 (invitation only)
Whether online or in-person, we look forward to sharing, learning, and connecting with you!
