WALTHAM, Mass., Oct. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- The Accelerated Cure Project for MS, a national nonprofit organization, today announced the formation of their MS Repository, projected to become the largest openly accessible, multi-disciplinary collection of bio-samples ever assembled for use in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) research. The initial phase of the repository development will collect blood samples from 1,000 subjects across the country and make them available to researchers investigating the causes of MS, providing them with immediate access to a far greater number of samples than most scientists could collect themselves. Limited sample size is one of the most frequently cited reasons for inconclusive results in MS research to date. After reaching the 1,000 subject milestone, the Accelerated Cure Project intends to continue enrolling subjects with an eventual goal of recruiting 10,000 participants.
