As The Gladstone Institute is finding, with fibrinogen initiating inflammation. Please bring vascular researchers into the mix. It is not enough to simply study the immunological side. The heart and brain are connected. #HeartBrainConnection

"I work on multiple sclerosis, and I do that by using MRI machines to take pictures of the brain, and the spinal cord. That's opened new doors into understanding how we might treat it, and prevent the disease."

Meet Dr. Daniel Reich, a neurologist, neuroradiologist, and neuroscientist with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the 2016 recipient of the Barancik Prize for Innovation in MS Research.
