The ACP Repository is a collection of samples and data from people with MS, CIS, or related demyelinating diseases (TM, ADEM, NMO, ON), their affected and unaffected relatives, and unrelated unaffected controls. The Repository is a shared, open-access resource available to the research community investigating the causes of these diseases.
The Repository was created to accelerate research into the causes, mechanisms, sub-types, and biomarkers of MS and related demyelinating diseases. The research proposed by researchers requesting samples and/or data must conform to the informed consent.
