Objectives

Motor Neurone Disease will only be defeated if the Research Foundation remains focussed on the following objectives:
  • identifying the causes of MND
  • developing new laboratory models of the disease
  • finding new diagnostic tests for MND so that the disease can be detected earlier
  • fast tracking potentially effective treatments from the laboratory to the clinic and on to people with MND
  • ensuring that everyone with MND in this country has the opportunity to take part in a clinical trial, should they so wish
  • increasing the number of doctors and scientists conducting research on MND
    facilitating sharing of knowledge amongst scientists
  • improving the care of people with MND.
