Hi Alan,

 

I agree that there continues to be a need for thorough research into an ultimate cure for MS and for highly effective, although safe, medications.

 

I'm am wondering though.  Are you the same Alan Palmer as....?

It might be very interesting to have a scientist's input into the challenges of multiple sclerosis.
