Season 4: Episode 1: Multiple Sclerosis

What if your immune system accidentally attacked your brain's wiring?

That's exactly what happens in Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

In this episode, we'll uncover how myelin acts like insulation around your nerves, why the immune system sometimes mistakes it for a threat, and what happens when those signals begin to slow down.

We'll also talk about common symptoms, the different types of MS, MRI scans, modern treatments, and exciting new research that could one day help repair damaged myelin.

Science doesn't have to be complicated. Join me for another episode of Tumor Minutes as we make neuroscience make sense.
