Moving Science Podcast

Join host Prof. Dr. Gavin Giovannoni from the Queen Mary University of London and three international experts
- Prof. Dr. Tanuja Chitnis from Harvard University,
- Dr. Sharmilee Gnanapavan from the Queen Mary University of London, and
- Dr. Ahmed Obeidat from the Medical College of Wisconsin
for an educational and thought-provoking discussion.

In part 1, we begin by explaining the biomarker NfL and then cover the latest scientific advances in the field. We explore what additional insights NfL provides and how it can support more frequent monitoring of MS disease activity in both clinical trials and medical practice. Additionally, we discuss the integration of NfL with other biomarkers, clinical data, and MRI findings to optimize MS care.

Navigating Pediatric MS Podcast

In this episode, we join the host, Stephanie Buxhoeveden, and two special guests Emily Blosberg with Oscar the Monkey and Harvard Neurology professor Tanuja Chitnis. Together we explore the complexities of pediatric multiple sclerosis and how it differs from the adult form of the disease. We’ll dive into when pediatric MS is typically diagnosed and highlight the early signs that parents and what to watch for. Beyond medical treatment, managing MS as a child can be particularly challenging. We share valuable advice for families on navigating school, sports, and social life, while emphasizing the importance of emotional support and accommodations. We take a look at the future of pediatric MS research, discussing advancements in clinical trials, potential new therapies, and ongoing studies to improve outcomes for children and teenagers with MS.
