Northern California is home to some of the top MS research institutions in the world. The National MS Society has funded over$11 million in active research grants to researchers at UC San Francisco, Stanford, UC Davis and the Gladstone Institute and several other organizations are undertaking clinical trials.
Researchers across the country are searching for people living with MS who are willing to participate in clinical trials of experimental therapies. Clinical trials help to determine whether a new drug is safe and effective. Without people living with MS who are willing to serve as volunteers in these studies, we could not look forward to new and better therapies.
To find a clinical trial in your area, please visit the National MS Society's Clinical Trials website.
