Recent global epidemiological data show that approximately 70% of people diagnosed with multiple sclerosis are women.  While this may tell us something about the mechanisms behind disease susceptibility, it also raises a number of unique challenges throughout the MS journey.  In this episode, Ruth Dobson, Professor of Clinical Neurology at Queen Mary University of London, and Emmanuelle Leray, Professor of Epidemiology at Ecole des hautes études en santé publique in Rennes, France, guide us through the different stages of this pathway and discuss the latest research findings that relate to female health.
