Dr. Ralph Kern, SVP-Head Worldwide Medical at Biogen, discusses the immune system’s role in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). In an autoimmune disease, cells of the immune system that normally help to protect us from harmful invaders begin to attack parts of the body. In MS, white blood cells can cause damage to healthy nerves in the central nervous system and can result in early MS symptoms including weakness, tingling, numbness and vision problems.
