COLORADO SPRINGS, CO. April 15, 2020. Terranova Medica, LLC, in collaboration with the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers (CMSC), is pleased to announce the launch of The Art of Multiple Sclerosis Therapies: Applying Immunologic Principles (artofmstherapy.org). This web-based activity is designed to help healthcare professionals integrate current immunological understanding and treatments into the management of multiple sclerosis (MS).

“We are so thrilled to have worked with the CMSC on this initiative,” says Lisa Tushla, Founder and President of Terranova Medica. “We have enjoyed a long-standing collaboration with the CMSC that has yielded numerous innovative activities. This was also a special project, given its mix of an in-depth dive into science/ immunology, interdisciplinary focus, and inclusion of practical patient education materials on challenging, novel concepts. We look forward to continuing this collaboration to make a difference in MS.”

Aimed at giving physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare team members the information and materials they need to weigh risks, benefits and differentiating factors of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs), The Art of Multiple Sclerosis Therapies also includes educational content to share with patients.

Healthcare professionals interested in integrating new immunological principles and interventions into MS management can learn more and register at artofmstherapy.org.
