ECTRIMS 2026 - Toronto, Canada
The latest poster from the SAW Index study was presented at ECTRIMS 2026 held in Toronto, Canada 21-23 October 2026.
The poster outlines the symptom profiles of our unique international cohort of people with Smouldering Associated Worsening in MS and highlights the implications this has for clinical trials in progessive MS.

We also provide on this page a short video explainer for the SAW Index study poster presented by Professor Hobart at ECTRIMS 2026 in Toronto, Canada.
