Episode Notes

As a neurologist and assistant professor at UCSF, Dr. Joe Sabatino treats patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and other neuroinflammatory disorders. He explains how immunotherapies are transforming the treatment of autoimmune diseases and discusses promising research into CAR T-cell therapies that could open new possibilities for patients with MS, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and other debilitating diseases.

Dr. Sabatino also discusses the importance of stable, reliable funding to move medical discoveries from the laboratory to patients. With federal research funding facing uncertainty, he shares why he supports Prop 38 (yeson38.com) and its proposed investment in immunology research. He explains how California's leading research institutions could help advance new treatments and cures for MS, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, ALS and other devastating diseases.

The measure:

• Provides critical funding for immunology research 
• Dedicated funding for cancer, Alzheimer's and heart disease research 
• Fosters collaboration between leading scientists and physicians 
• Mandates strong accountability and transparency
• Designed to pay for itself – including interest 
• Requires 20% discount on treatments and cures for Californians
