This website is based on a publication called the MS Research in Australia: Resource Landscape Report, published in 2015 by MS Australia.
The MS Research in Australia: Resource Landscape Report was envisaged as a resource for key research enablers and researchers to reduce the fragmentation of knowledge of the resources available to MS researchers in Australia, and to highlight the gaps for future resource development. The report is based on an internal analysis of MS Australia data on the Australian MS research community and a survey of MS researchers.
The report was created with generous support from the Macquarie Group Foundation.
The Australian MS community shows very high engagement in professional societies and professional development groups. This is of crucial importance to ensure effective engagement with the research and clinical community, to foster opportunities for collaboration both inside and outside a researcher’s own discipline, and to reflect on progress being made in the national and international research arenas.
Many funding opportunities exist for Australasian researchers to apply for financial support. These fall into broad categories including government funding, private and philanthropic funding, and international funding opportunities.
This section summarises a selection of the currently available infrastructure, equipment, and facilities from around Australia, but is not a comprehensive list. This summary also does not consider resources within the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries in Australia as these are generally not publically listed or publically available for access.
