The battle to fight MS continues, and a major investigation to find a safe treatment for the condition is underway. The clinical trial, that will involve 150 European patients, will set out to determine if stem cells are the answer to busting the damaging effect MS has on the brain and spinal cord. Researchers are hoping that the investigation will lead to a breakthrough innovation that will help to slow down and even stop the advance of the condition. If the treatment proves successful, it might even reverse the damage MS causes. The research that forms the foundation of the soon to be carried out trial has been partly funded by the MS Society in the UK, and the trial is set to begin later this year.
