Abstract

The Americas Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ACTRIMS) Forum 2017 brought together a multidisciplinary team of basic and clinical researchers to discuss the impact of environmental, genetic, and epigenetic factors on multiple sclerosis (MS) susceptibility and clinical course. The series of articles in this special edition reflect the breadth and depth of the topics that were discussed.
