Dr. Mahad Discusses Protecting Nerve Cells in Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Don Mahad, MD, PhD, discusses his research’s focus of protecting nerve cells at the 2014 Joint ACTRIMS-ECTRIMS Meeting in Boston.

Mahad shares his method of considering the role of mitochondrial damage as a springboard to identifying newer approaches to nerve protection.

“So I think trying different therapeutic options, targeting the neuronal pathways and mitochondria within you is a very exciting way of trying to solve the problem,” said Mahad.
