The disease symptoms and treatments

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common neurological disorder among young adults and often results in a handicap. It is an auto-immune disease in which the body attacks its own tissues. The immune attack in MS targets the central nervous system. The lesions are well-localised and are called “plaques”.

You raised more than 7.5 months' worth of funds for multiple sclerosis research!

Here are a few photos of the event, made all the more special by your presence.

From all the researchers: Thank you!

All participants join us in paying tribute to our volunteers: Diane, Louise, Véronique, Tykhon, Joachim, Charles-Henry and Professor Christian Sindic.

Finally, we dedicate this edition to Isabelle Bloem, who, for reasons beyond her control was unable to join this event but whose every aspect bears her imprint.
