iConquerMS, a research initiative where people affected by multiple sclerosis (MS) contribute their health data and ideas, is expanding its research program to include caregivers of people with MS.

Established in 2014 by the Accelerated Cure Project (ACP), iConquerMS has launched a new website and research program solely dedicated to the needs of MS caregivers.

“As the first and only online community crafted by and for people who are taking care of someone living with MS, iConquerMS Caregivers offers participants the opportunity to share knowledge and learn best practices for meeting the everyday and long-term challenges of being a caregiver for someone with MS without losing themselves in the process,” Jon Strum, who leads ACP’s Care Partner Advisory Board, said in a press release.
