Description

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a relatively common chronic neurological disorder. It is a topical subject, with research interest in the field growing. This text seeks to describe in molecular terms what is known about the disease. It provides, where appropriate, enough background information to enable the non-specialist reader to become familiar with current concepts.
