Funding Opportunities For Researchers

MSRA annually offers financial support to Australian Researchers in the effort to accelerate progress towards the cause, and the cure for MS. We are always looking for opportunities to leverage our grants, particularly to attract matching dollars from other organisations.

We have existing partnerships with the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) and the Trish MS Research Foundation for Betty Cuthbert Fellowships and Scholarships. In addition, MSRA can act as an Industry Partner for ARC Linkage Grants (as we did for ANZgene).
