  Accessible Technology Can Offer Customizable Solutions to People With MS
Time: 09:26 EST/14:26 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

In today’s fast-paced, digital environment, more people are embracing the technology that has revolutionized the way we conduct business, interact with our family and friends, and manage our households. For some people with multiple sclerosis (MS), technological advances may offer benefits, but they can also pose challenges. Due to some MS symptoms, everyday tasks such as seeing a blinking cursor on a computer screen, manipulating a mouse, or remembering when to take medication may prove difficult. Industry leaders think they may be able to change this.

Recognizing the advantages that technology can bring to people with MS, leaders from three specialty areas — pharmaceutical, technology, and patient advocacy — have come together to improve the way technology may help people with MS maintain their health and independence, have support for their life choices, and stay connected with their families, friends and communities.

In this landmark alliance known as the MS Technology Collaborative, Berlex Inc., a U.S. affiliate of Bayer Schering Pharma AG, Germany; Microsoft Corp.; and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society will work together to better understand the needs of people with MS and to help provide access to the technology and resources they need to stay connected to their communities and the world. A project steering committee composed of people with MS from across the country will oversee these efforts to help ensure that the outcomes from the project truly address the unmet needs of the MS community.
