Boston Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis

The Boston Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis is a national nonprofit dedicated to curing MS by determining its causes. Founded in 2001, it began formally branching out nationally in 2005 under the umbrella name Accelerated Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis, with the Boston Cure Project as the national headquarters and New England affiliate.

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis, or MS, is a chronic demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system affecting over 400,000 people in the US and 2 million individuals worldwide. MS often results in severe disability including the inability to walk, impaired vision or in some cases blindness, cognitive dysfunction, bladder and bowel problems, extreme fatigue and other serious symptoms. Unfortunately, no one knows what causes Multiple Sclerosis, there is no known cure for the disease, and treatments are modest at best.
