About the opportunity

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) affects more than 2.9 million people worldwide and is the leading non-traumatic cause of neurological disability in young adults. In Multiple Sclerosis, not all white-matter lesions are equal — some contribute disproportionately to long-term disability while others remain clinically silent. We hypothesis that a subset of MS lesions, jointly characterised by their degree of axonal loss and anatomical location, can substantially improve prediction of clinical progression. The project is aiming to develop a novel lesion...
