Overview
The overall purpose of this project is to develop and test an infrastructure that can ensure early and specialized rehabilitation for individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) on their path to recovery from a relapse. If this project proves successful, it can therefore help optimize clinical practice and provide a significant contribution to the treatment of relapsing-remitting sclerosis.
