Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) describes the dynamics of electrically conducting fluids,
such as plasmas and liquid metals, under the influence of magnetic fields.  In this
talk, I will present recent progress on the stochastic MHD equations in a bounded
domain, perturbed by spatially smooth, multiplicative Gaussian noise.  We establish the
existence and uniqueness of a pathwise strong solution, which is global in two spatial
dimensions.  This work is part of a broader effort to understand the regularity
properties of stochastic MHD systems, with a view toward rigorous numerical analysis.  

Based on joint work in progress with Ben Goldys and Thanh Tran.
