| Overview: Accelerated Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis
is a national nonprofit dedicated to curing MS by determining its causes. Our main
effort is the creation of a large-scale, multidisciplinary MS Repository of blood
samples and data from people with MS and matched controls. We make these samples
available to researchers investigating the causes of MS. In exchange for access
to the repository, researchers agree to return the data they generate from the
samples so that results from disparate experiments can be combined. |
