The Programme (UK)/Program (US) is online (CLICK HERE) The abstracts are now live
Come and see us at the Google Hangout 15.45-16.45 Central European Summer Time = GMT + 2 h) with NDG and ProfB your hosts to answer your questions and to report on what’s “Hot” and What’s “Not”….OK, they won’t waste their time, and your time, with the what’s not :-).
If you miss the Hangout some of us can be found on the ClinicSpeak and DigestingScience stands.

I believe I saw some courses pregnancy and lactation. I am interested in the suggested guidelines.
Can you please look out for anything on hand function? #ThinkHand

I'd like to know what hsct discussion there is. Given its explosion over last year.
I haven't finished the programme but i saw nothing
Congratulations guys
Anything novel on cognition (from descriptive to prescriptive) would be extremely of interest to me. HF!
Longitudinal studies? Maybe a little over done but, more and more clear information on how people are doing 10-20 years on helps.
Doesn't look like there's anything on HSCT at all. Great – sure the most effective MS intervention in decades not being discussed is really helpful and rewarding.

I agree, does this say that ECTRIMS is a facade for marketing pharma drugs?
That goes without saying. Research in multiple sclerosis and yet nothing on stem cell therapy? No updates on clinical trials???
Oh course it is
The first stem cell therapy to go in phase 3 for ALS. If it works in ALS, Then is guaranteed to work on MS. Also similar trial is in phase 2 in New York for MS.

If it works in ALS is a very, very big if, lets see what happens.
Thanks MouseDoctor2. Can't we just live in fools paradise a little longer? Besides. There must of been some indication it will work after phase 2 to proceed to 3? But your probably right. At best will be a modest affect. But let's see. If it works it will be dawn of a new age in medicine. Ultimately eradicating all diseases.
I don't want be be a wet blanket but also don't want to raise false hopes either. I really hope it does something, both my grandfather and aunt died of ALS.
So nothing in HSCT in parisms2017 – seriously, can you not see the gaping injustice and lack of care that the scientific and medical community has for pwMS?
It's just a self congratulatory club making faux progress in to a deviststing disease that HSCT has been highly effective in stopping.
We agree, it's a glaring omission but if those who are doing HSCT for MS don't submit their work for presentation at the meeting then the organisers hands are tied.
"those who are doing HSCT for MS don't submit their work for presentation at the meeting"
Appareantly they did….(you did´nt look hard enough)… 🙂

Neurodegeneration!
Thanks… I liked the look of these:
234 – Aerobic exercise induces functional and structural reorganisation an rct
230 – ECTRIMS-EAN guideline
195 – Multiple sclerosis disease course prediction: machine learning
P1244 – calorie restricted diets
P1239 – trial design in progressive ms
I am interested in anything Pediatric MS related.
I do the yearly reporting back to the Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis Alliance of ECTRIMS/ACTRIMS as best I can, based on posted abstracts, videos, blogs, etc coming out of the conferences.
How expensive is the beer?
About 8-9 euro per 50cl 🙁
Free to alcoholics who pay it for ya .
Thanks for making me chuckle MD2😃

Best Dmt ever
Lollllllllllllllllll

Is ibudalist a hit or miss? Seems like a boring ECTRIMS this year. Any head turning breakthroughs or data realised that turn understanding of MS upside down?
Ooops ibudalist shows positive results. If I remember correctly barts team thought it wouldn't work. Spinimod also had low expectations last given the failure of fingolimod in ppms. Hate to say it and with taking anything away from the excellent research done by barts. But does it not prove understanding of MS is not complete or correct?
Please can you give a comment/explanation on how fingolimod appears long-term (conversion to SPMS) less affective comparing to injectables.
… "The risk (assessed as hazard ratios) to convert to SPMS among patients treated with injectables was 0.31 (follow-up of 7.9 years), 0.23 with Gilenya (follow-up 4.6 years), 0.50 with Tysabri (follow-up 4.9 years), and 0.60 with Lemtrada (follow-up 7.2 years), compared to matched untreated patients. …

A little help for the "black snaw"?
Leukocyte repopulation following alemtuzumab treatment in relapsing-remitting MS contains multiple regulatory immune cell types

Is this another way of reporting what you allready know?
Funny they mentioning the memory b cells a Bregs (never heard that before)
Obrigado
Should say "didn´t mentioning the memory b cell"
But they showed very clearly that b memory's were depleted, on the poster. Some of the subpopulations were blind faith on the gating
You right
"memory B cells dropped to minimal levels by M5 and remained reduced"
Sorry
Obrigado
What about GNbAC1? The Phase IIb trial results seem encouraging at the 6 Month mark..
