Research projects may focus on any phase of research, excluding clinical trials. The rationale for a research idea may be derived from laboratory discovery, clinical trial results, population-based studies, a clinician’s firsthand knowledge of patients, or anecdotal data. Applications must include preliminary and/or published data that are relevant to multiple sclerosis and the proposed research project..
All applications must address at least one of the Focus Areas are listed at the end of this announcement.
