When the immune system turns against us: living with multiple sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis is a neurological disease in which the immune system, designed to protect the body, becomes its main aggressor. More than 55,000 people are living with it in Spain. It is a chronic condition, often invisible and still without a cure, for which research in neuroimmunology is now opening a door that did not previously exist. Multiple sclerosis represents one of the research lines at the CaixaResearch Institute aimed at gaining a better understanding of immune-mediated diseases.
