Dr. Nancy Discusses Cognitive Functionality and Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Nancy Chiaravalloti, PhD, shares how cognitive function impacts patients with progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) at the 2014 Joint ACTRIMS-ECTRIMS Meeting in Boston.

Chiaravalloti and her team assess the efficacy of memory treatment and functionality to improve cognitive rehabilitation of progressive MS patients.

As she said, “Your cognition really is who you are. Everything you are as an individual is because of what you learned over the years. And, what happens with MS is your cognitive functions begin to decline.”
