Technology is opening new possibilities for how multiple sclerosis is monitored, treated and managed.

In this episode of the ECTRIMS Podcast, host Brett Drummond speaks with Prof. Ellen Mowry of Johns Hopkins University and Prof. Letizia Leocani of Vita-Salute San Raffaele University about how innovative medical technologies could transform MS research and clinical care.

Together, they explore:

  • How artifical intelligence, wearable devices and digital biomarkers could help monitor MS progression
  • The potential to capture fatigue, cognition, pain, mood, sleep and other symptoms between clinical visits
  • How passive monitoring could provide a more complete picture of everyday life with MS
  • The growing role of virtual rehabilitation, digital therapies and other technologies in bringing care into people's homes
  • Why digital biomarkers require rigorous research and validation before being used in clinical trials

From earlier detection of disability progression to more accessible rehabilitation and personalised symptom management, this episode examines both the opportunities and challenges of using technology to improve MS care.
