MS-COVID research

Stanley Cohan, M.D., Ph.D., of Providence Multiple Sclerosis Center, and Bernie Fox, Ph.D., of Providence Cancer Institute, have developed a protocol to assess whether MS patients can mount an effective anti-COVID-19 response to vaccination if they are receiving medications that suppress or modulate the immune system. Your gift will help fund the cost of the study.
