Episode 40: Hot Topics Mini-Series - The Role of Epstein-Barr Virus in Multiple Sclerosis

This Hot Topics Mini-Series episode includes a discussion with Dr. Lawrence Steinman, professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences, Pediatrics, and Genetics at Stanford Medical School. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. In people with MS, the body’s immune system attacks the insulating layer that surrounds nerve cells, often killing the cells. In this episode, Dr. Steinman unpacks the connection between the Epstein-Barr virus and MS and the implications for the development of new vaccines and anti-virals that have the potential to eradicate this disease.
