 Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice.

In this episode, "World MS Day: Raising Awareness, Evolving Care, and Empowering Patients," Taylor Hess, MD, a multiple sclerosis specialist at the Michigan Institute for Neurological Disorders (MIND), shares insights in recognition of World MS Day. She reflects on the importance of raising global awareness for MS, the need for equitable care, and the evolving focus of research and treatment. Dr. Hess discusses underrecognized symptoms like fatigue and cognitive dysfunction, and emphasizes the value of the upcoming diagnostic criteria update in enabling earlier intervention. She highlights key research priorities—including progressive MS, symptom management, and remyelination—and speaks to the importance of holistic, lifestyle-informed care. Finally, she shares advice for clinicians on how to communicate a new MS diagnosis with empathy, clarity, and empowerment.
