The Partners Multiple Sclerosis Center at Brigham and Women's Hospital, annually offers  a 1-2 year clinical fellowship program in the field of Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

We are now accepting applications for July 2011. Please contact Meghan Radden at mradden@rics.bwh.harvard.edu for an application form.
