Research shows that spirituality can benefit mental health and improve overall well-being. And it can play a meaningful role in helping people cope with life's challenges, like living with MS. This week, Dr. Mana Ali Carter, a rehabilitation psychologist at MedStar National Rehabilitation Hospital in Washington D.C., joins me to discuss the positive effects that spirituality can have on the mind and body, and how it's been shown to make a difference for people living with MS. We're also sharing encouraging initial reports from a Phase 1 clinical trial for KYV-101, Kyverna's investigational CAR-T therapy for MS. We'll tell you about a positive report on two years of data from a Phase 2 clinical trial extension study for Frexalimab, a novel investigational disease-modifying therapy from Sanofi. We'll explain how the decision to discontinue federal matching funds for designated state health programs will have a direct impact on some people living with MS. And we'll tell you how you can register for the National MS Society's webinar in support of restoring federal funding for the MS Research Program. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
