The National Multiple Sclerosis Society aspires to bring the global community together to cure MS for everyone, aiming to achieve this goal as swiftly as possible. Their mission involves coordinating and focusing worldwide resources on essential research questions to accelerate progress toward ending MS.
The grant program from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society supports research aligned with the Pathways to Cures Roadmap, focusing on stopping MS, restoring function, and ending MS through prevention. It prioritizes research that promotes collaboration across disciplines, adheres to principles of data and resource sharing, and focuses on underserved and understudied racial and ethnic MS populations. The Mentor-Based Postdoctoral Fellowship in Rehabilitation Research specifically provides support for mentor-institution pairs to train postdoctoral fellows in rehabilitation research relevant to MS, aiming to bolster the fellows' ability to perform significant, independent research and secure positions to continue their work in the field.
