  Assessing cognition changes as a disease biomarker for patients with multiple sclerosis using the Adapted TAS Test, a computer-based self-assessment tool

  Dr Dhara Knight, a New Zealand neurologist who will undertake her research at the University of Tasmania. This fellowship will test a simple, computer-based self-assessment that people with multiple sclerosis (MS) can use regularly at home to track changes in brain function. Detecting progression of the disease earlier will support faster treatment decisions and better long-term outcomes for people living with MS.
