The autonomous MS patient - Defining evidence gaps and setting an agenda for new collaborations
GENERAL OUTLINE
We would like to use this meeting to define where we are now regarding “patient autonomy in MS” and find ideas where to go next. Therefore, the first day will be used to provide an update on existing projects inspired by the MRC framework. Here, we will identify also research gaps. The next day will be used for group work to find ideas for new (SIG) projects. We will discuss those projects and present the most promising ideas to the whole group in order to choose our next SIG project to work on. All participants are invited to present their projects and project ideas by the end of October.
