Grant Activity:
Elucidating the Genetic Architecture of Multiple Sclerosis to Influence Improvements in Disease Outcomes
Purpose:
This proposal will address three major knowledge gaps in MS: (1) the genetic drivers of MS progression; (2) the causal role of EBV and HHV6 infection in MS onset and progression; and (3) the genetic differences between female and male MS patients. This work involves several large international collaborations with leading scientists across multiple fields. It will advance the identification of novel biological targets for developing early diagnostic and treatment applications in MS.
