The Society announces its Spring 2004 call for Outline Proposals (Open and Themed strands)

The MS Society aims to fund research to explore the causes of MS, to develop a cure for MS, and to improve the quality of life of people affected by MS.

Any research topic relevant to MS will be accepted in the Open strand, whereas the Themed strand will focus on the Society's research priorities of:

Mechanisms of nerve damage and nerve repair

Fatigue related to MS

For the Themed strand we would particularly encourage collaborative, multi-disciplined, and multi-institutional approaches to research. The Society also welcomes applications from research groups outside the U.K.

We offer the following awards:

Project grants

Innovative awards

PhD Studentships

Junior and Senior Research Fellowships

For further details or to apply for either strand contact researchadmin @ mssociety.org.uk or 020 8438 0770 for an Outline Proposal Application.

The deadline for submission of Outline Proposals for both strands is midday 27th February 2004.
