"The main purpose of the congress is to use advanced technologies in the treatment of multiple sclerosis, share experiences with scientists and apply them in practice," said Professor Demirkaya Sheref, president of the Association for the Support of Research on multiple sclerosis. - We believe that this congress will further improve the results of treatment of multiple sclerosis through the exchange of experience between scientists from Western and Central Asian countries on the modern diagnosis and treatment of multiple sclerosis and the introduction of innovations in the practice of treatment and prevention institutions.

The first congress on the topical issues of multiple sclerosis with the participation of experts from Turkish countries was held at the Medical Faculty of Gulhane University in Turkey in 2019.
