MS can affect people at any age — but most are diagnosed between 20 and 40, when life is full of work, family, and responsibilities. How old were you when you were diagnosed? #MultipleSclerosis #MSResearch

People from minority communities are often left out of MS clinical trials. When studies lack diversity, results can miss how treatments work across different groups — making care less effective for everyone. Inclusion makes research stronger. #MultipleSclerosis #MSResearch

MS affects people of all backgrounds, but clinical trials often lack diversity. When minority groups are left out, results miss differences in symptoms, treatment response, and access to care — making research less accurate. iConquerMS.org #MSResearch #MultipleSclerosis
