Research on ms

I’ve noticed Some of you say you do research on ms on what works and what doesn’t . What are the best websites, journals , blogs , magazines to look at or any other sources that are true facts? Rachael

@rachaellouise , the Barts MS Blog is a good place to start, with views on most developments from a well respected team:- http://multiple-sclerosis-research.blogspot.com/

I agree. Unlike a lot of sites it provides comments on research papers rather than just quoting them verbatim. It puts the many claims about cures/meds/treatments into a realistic context - for example, a research paper may look impressive but the Barts people may question its validity based on the size of the sample or the research methods. It also gives you insight into the team's own MS research and their views on clinical practice. You'll see the most up-to-date 'direction of travel' as regards treatment choices, so you should be able to gauge if your own neuro team is up to speed.
