Award for a research project using PET and MRI to study brain inflammation and metabolic stress in multiple sclerosis patients, comparing different therapies.
Description
This project aims to investigate how brain inflammation and metabolic stress contribute to the pathophysiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) using PET and MRI imaging techniques. The study will examine subclinical inflammation and metabolic stress in MS patients, assessing the effects of S1P-modulating therapy versus non-S1P-modulating therapy.
