MS Australia supports research activity in areas where Australian scientists will have the greatest impact on MS research worldwide. We do this using two main approaches:
We support investigator-led research projects that are selected through a robust grant review process;
and we coordinate and fund major national collaborations, or research ‘platforms’, to address key scientific questions that no one researcher could solve in isolation.
Through this two-pronged approach, we aim to accelerate further significant breakthroughs in our knowledge of MS to work towards better treatments, prevention and a cure for MS.
MS Australia works with the broader international scientific and health professional community to identify key scientific questions that no one researcher can solve in isolation.

For people with MS wishing to get directly involved and participate in research into MS, there are many different ways to participate, ranging from completing a short survey to participating in a clinical trial.
