CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A leading multiple sclerosis researcher is setting up shop in the Charlotte area.
Simon Gregory is helping to staff and stock a genetics lab at the David H. Murdock Research Center in Kannapolis.
He’s hoping to build on the discovery he and several colleagues made two years ago. Gregory found that a gene on the fifth chromosome plays a role in MS. Up until that time only the sixth chromosome had been thought to be involved in the nerve disease.
