We are committed to improving the lives of children with multiple sclerosis and advancing research that will benefit all individuals with MS. The Lourie Center for Pediatric MS at Stony Brook was founded in 2002 to advance recognition, evaluation and treatment of multiple sclerosis in children. Our Center was the first in the nation to address pediatric MS by assembling a multi-disciplinary team of experts. We have brought together specialists in the disease itself, as well as pediatric neurology, neuropsychology, neuro-ophthalmology, pediatric nursing, child psychiatry and neuroradiology. It is a designated Center of Excellence" by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The team's goal is to help children with MS by identifying the biological changes in children facing MS, advancing research that could make a dramatic difference in the lives and ultimately, to find a cure for all persons with MS. We are today also recognized as the founder of an international pediatric MS research program. We have evaluated and provide ongoing treatment for more than 500 children at our center."
