MS Australia has a partnership with the NHMRC that provides the opportunity for top-up funding for outstanding NHMRC Investigators and Postgraduate Scholars. To be considered for top-up funding, Fellowship and Scholarship applications must be submitted to both MS Australia and NHMRC.
For more information please visit the following pages and follow the links to the ‘Co-Funding Partners’ information documents:
An application will only be considered for top-up funding if both the NHMRC and MS Australia grant review panels rank the applications as fundable. Applicants are also encouraged to apply to the National MS Society of the USA (NMSS) where there is also a potential to be considered for co-funding.
There is no automatic routing of applications between NHMRC, NMSS and MS Australia. Therefore, MS Australia recommends that applicants increase their chances of funding by applying to all organisations where appropriate.
The International Progressive MS Alliance (IPMSA) offers periodic funding for specific challenges with the goal of removing barriers to developing treatments for progressive MS. At the time of writing, the Alliance has offered three rounds of funding, including two rounds of project grant Challenge Awards, and a two-step Award round, including a Planning Award that will lead to major Collaborative Network Awards.
MS Australia works with a number of partner organisations to allocate funds or co-fund ‘fundable’ MS research. For MS Australia this means that we can increase the amount of funding and researchers concentrating on MS research.
