Problems with memory, attention, and problem solving (together known as ‘cognitive’ problems) affect up to 70% of people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
These problems are distressing for people with MS (and their families), affecting their mood, ability to work, and enjoy social activities.
Therefore, treating cognitive problems is a ‘top 10’ research priority for people with MS.
This is the problem our NEuRoMS study will address.
Multiple Sclerosis or MS is a condition of the central nervous system which affects the nerves in the brain and spinal cord.
Neuropsychological evaluation involves testing people to check for problems with cognition through a series of questionnaires and/or simple tasks.
Many people with Multiple Sclerosis will experience some form of difficulty with cognition.
