Can a blood test reveal MS activity before your MRI does? 🧠💉
In the first episode of The Healthy Brain Toolbox, I’m joined by Jennifer Chester of Octave Bioscience, a seasoned neurology nurse practitioner turned biotech innovator, to explore one of the most exciting breakthroughs in MS care.
We dive into the science and story behind the Octave MS Disease Activity Test—a powerful new tool that could change how we detect, track, and treat Multiple Sclerosis.
Whether you're a clinician, a patient, or just curious about the future of neurology, this conversation is packed with insights you don’t want to miss.
🎧 Listen now to discover how precision medicine is reshaping MS management—and why this test might be the key to earlier, more effective interventions.
