In this episode, Heather Brown, Senior Editor at The Lancet Neurology, chats with Jan Lünemann (University of British Columbia, Canada) and Christian Münz (University of Zürich, Switzerland) about their Rapid Review on Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and multiple sclerosis (MS). EBV, a common herpesvirus, has been strongly implicated in development of MS, and recent mechanistic advances are providing new insights into how EBV might cause MS in some people but not others. We also discuss the potential for prevention of MS with EBV vaccines, whether therapies targeting EBV might eventually be useful for MS treatment, and important unanswered questions and next steps for the field.
