We will be enrolling patients and related controls into the Accelerated Cure Project (ACP) repository throughout the day on Friday, September 24, 2010.

The ACP repository is an important “open access” resource for researchers working to find causes, treatments and cures for demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), transverse myelitis (TM), neuromyelitis optica (NMO), optic neuritis (ON) and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM).

Please contact Martha Mann at 214-645-0543 or Martha.Mann@utsouthwestern.edu for more information. If you are interested in donating a blood and data sample during the symposium, please contact Martha by September 10 to schedule your enrollment appointment.
