It's important for me to stay connected with the community of researchers who are looking for answers. I consider it my duty to be part of the discovery process. I am not anonymous; I am not just a number. I am a resilient person who happens to have a chronic disease. The mission of ACP and iConquerMS grew as a response to the needs of people affected by MS that were not being addressed by the traditional paths of research. ACP and iConquerMS allow me the opportunity to drive, shape, and take charge of the research that will have a direct impact on my life, and the lives of others living with this disease.
