Backward Masking Tasks to Decipher Impaired Input-Output Connections in MS @7T

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system. People with MS frequently suffer from cognitive and visual impairment. Moreover, patients rank cognition and vision as two of the three most valuable bodily functions, in addition to mobility. Here the investigator use the established backward masking paradigm to study structural and functional alteration at the sub-milimeter scale in ultra-high field MRI in order to decipher the different input-output loops associated with the preservation and alteration of cognition in MS.
