Researchers are committed to finding solutions for everyone affected by MS — the very people who hold the key to the answers.

People with MS, and sometimes family members, can help advance MS research by:

  • responding to surveys online
  • sharing their voices and ideas through NARCOMS and iConquerMSTM, organizations that amass volunteer-submitted information
  • volunteering for clinical trials and other studies
  • donating DNA from saliva and blood samples
  • arranging for brain or spinal cord tissue donation to a tissue bank; this type of donation is incredibly valuable and truly appreciated by all who are involved in moving toward a world free of MS.  Blood samples also can be donated for use in MS research studies.

Assess each opportunity and make an informed decision before agreeing to participate — understand the possible benefits and risks. 

See our Guide to Participating in Clinical Trials.
