Current Advances in Multiple Sclerosis

Presented by: Dr. Michael Namaka, MSc Pharm; PhD

This presentation covers two main domains based on Michael's recent book chapter on Multiple Sclerosis published in the textbook entitled "Therapeutic Choices". This includes a comprehensive overview of the underlying pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis with special attention to the relapsing remitting form of the disease, and discussion of currently available treatment strategies for the relapsing remitting form of the disease.

Dr. Michael Namaka is a Tenured Full Professor at the College of Pharmacy and Medicine in the University of Manitoba. In addition, Dr. Namaka is also cross-appointed as a Professor in Rehab Medicine (Spinal Cord Injury) & Human Anatomy and Physiology in the College of Medicine at the University of Manitoba and the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority. Currently, Michael functions as clinician specialized in multiple sclerosis (MS) and chronic pain, with a recognized cellular expertise in both areas, through his professional designation as a neuro-immunologist. These dual professional designations have allowed Michael to bridge his cellular neuro-immunology research to his neurology based clinical practice.
