The MND Association has a longstanding record in commissioning and funding healthcare research. Our goal is that healthcare research we fund will lead to better symptom management and quality of life for people with MND, their families and carers and help strengthen the case for public funding of high-quality MND care.
We are now accepting applications for Healthcare Project Grants and PhD Studentships. The deadline is 25 April 2025.
Purpose of the Association's Project Grants The essential purpose of the grant is to support a single project, ie a piece of work designed to answer a single question or a small group of related questions. Such support will usually be of limited duration and applications of up to three years will be considered. Applications for less than two years should ideally include a named researcher with the relevant expertise, familiar with the institute and the methodologies to be used. The continuation of a grant within the funded period will be subject to annual review after the submission of a progress report, which is required at the completion of each year of the project.
Applications for Project Grants at non-London Institutes should not exceed £100,000 per annum (and £300,000 in total) without the prior agreement of the MND Association.
Applications for Project Grants at London Institutes should not exceed £110,000 per annum (and £330,000 in total) without the prior agreement of the MND Association. Please budget for the costs of conference attendance in line with our Terms and Conditions, to a maximum of £3,000 for a three year grant, and pro-rata for a shorter grant.
Where the viability of a project depends on collaboration / involvement with investigators not named as co-applicants, the exact role of the collaborator/s should be clearly stated within the summary application. Confirmation from each collaborator indicating their willingness to participate will be required with the full application.
